utils: p-i-d StaticInformation::DoGather() does not need to create an Object

stavallo · tomhenderson · commit 923e8c158e95 · 2025-09-04T13:33:46.000Z
Creating an Object would call ObjectBase::ConstructSelf() on an object
with "ns3::Object" TypeId, thus hitting the abort macro added to
prevent calling ObjectBase::Constructself() in the constructor of
a class deriving from the Object class.
