Python: add new shared-SSA-backed SSA adapter

Preparatory refactor for the shared-CFG dataflow migration. Adds the
new Python SSA adapter additively, without changing any production
behaviour.

Library additions:

- semmle.python.dataflow.new.internal.SsaImpl — Python SSA
  implementation built on the new (shared) CFG. Mirrors the Java SSA
  adapter (java/ql/lib/semmle/code/java/dataflow/internal/SsaImpl.qll):
  an InputSig is defined in terms of positional (BasicBlock, int)
  variable references, and the shared
  codeql.ssa.Ssa::Make<Location, Cfg, Input> module is then
  instantiated.

  SourceVariable is the AST-level Py::Variable. Variable references
  are looked up via the new CFG facade's NameNode.defines/uses/deletes
  predicates (added in the preceding PR), which themselves are
  one-line bridges to AST-level Name.defines/uses/deletes.

  Implicit-entry definitions are inserted for non-local/global/builtin
  reads, captured variables, and (when needed) parameters.

Test additions:

- library-tests/dataflow-new-ssa/ — exercises the new SSA over a
  representative test corpus and checks expected def/use chains.

- library-tests/dataflow-new-ssa-vs-legacy/ — runs both new SSA and
  legacy ESSA over the same corpus and diffs the results, so any
  semantic divergence shows up as a test failure.

Production impact:

None. The new SSA adapter has zero callers in lib/ and src/ — the
legacy ESSA SSA (semmle/python/essa/*) remains the default. The
dataflow library is not migrated yet; that lands in a follow-up PR.

Verified by:
- All 367 lib + src + consistency-queries compile clean.
- All 641 ControlFlow + PointsTo + dataflow + essa + consistency
  library-tests pass.
- Both new dataflow-new-ssa[/vs-legacy] test packs pass.

* A new SSA adapter has been added under `semmle.python.dataflow.new.internal.SsaImpl`, built on the shared `codeql.ssa.Ssa` library and the new shared CFG (`semmle.python.controlflow.internal.Cfg`). It is not yet used by the dataflow library or any production query; the legacy ESSA SSA in `semmle/python/essa/*` remains the default. The new SSA adapter is exposed for tests and for the upcoming dataflow migration.

/**
* Provides the Python SSA implementation built on the new (shared) CFG.
*
* Mirrors the Java SSA adapter at
* `java/ql/lib/semmle/code/java/dataflow/internal/SsaImpl.qll`:
* an `InputSig` is defined in terms of positional `(BasicBlock, int)`
* variable references, and the shared
* `codeql.ssa.Ssa::Make<Location, Cfg, Input>` module is then
* instantiated.
*
* `SourceVariable` is the AST-level `Py::Variable`. Variable references
* are looked up via the CFG facade's `NameNode.defines`/`uses`/`deletes`
* predicates, which themselves are one-line bridges to AST-level
* `Name.defines`/`uses`/`deletes`.
*
* Implicit-entry definitions are inserted for:
* - non-local / global / builtin variables that are read in the scope
* but never assigned (no enclosing CFG node defines them),
* - captured variables (variables defined in an enclosing scope that
* are read inside the scope), and
* - parameters, but only if the corresponding parameter name is *not*
* itself a CFG node. With the C#-style parameter wiring already
* installed in `AstNodeImpl.qll`, parameter names *are* CFG nodes,
* so the regular `variableWrite` path handles them — no `i = -1`
* entry is needed for ordinary parameters.

# Basic SSA tests for the new-CFG SSA adapter.
#
# The shared SSA implementation prunes its construction by liveness:
# definitions of variables that are not read are never materialised.
# This is by design — write-only variables would only bloat the SSA
# graph. Tests therefore must always include a read of each variable
# being verified.
#
# Annotations:
# def=<var>: there is an SSA write definition of <var> at this line
# use=<var>: <var> is used here and the read resolves to some def
