Flips the Python dataflow trunk from the legacy CFG (semmle/python/Flow.qll)
and legacy ESSA SSA (semmle/python/essa/*) to the new shared CFG facade
(semmle.python.controlflow.internal.Cfg) and the new SSA adapter
(semmle.python.dataflow.new.internal.SsaImpl), both introduced
additively in the preceding PRs in this stack.
This is the trunk-flip equivalent of the original draft PR #21894 (kept
around as documentation), rebased on top of the four preparatory PRs:
P1: Remove AstNode.getAFlowNode() and rewrite callers (#21919).
P2: Qualify Flow.qll's AST references with Py:: prefix (#21920).
P3: Add new shared-CFG-backed control flow graph (#21921).
P4: Add new shared-SSA-backed SSA adapter (#21923).
The Python dataflow library (semmle/python/dataflow/new/) now imports
the new CFG facade and SSA adapter. All CFG-typed predicates
(ControlFlowNode, CallNode, BasicBlock, NameNode, AttrNode, ...) are
qualified with the Cfg:: prefix; SSA references switch from
EssaVariable/EssaDefinition to SsaImpl::Definition/SourceVariable.
GuardNode is redesigned to use the new CFG's outcome-node model
(isAfterTrue / isAfterFalse) instead of the legacy ConditionBlock +
flipped indirection. Only BarrierGuard<...> is preserved as public
API.
Framework files (Bottle, FastApi, Django, Tornado, Pyramid, Stdlib,
...) are updated to take CFG nodes from the new facade.
A handful of dataflow consistency tweaks for the new CFG:
- Augmented-assignment targets are treated as both load and store.
- 'from X import *' produces uncertain SSA writes for unknown names.
- CFG nodes are canonicalised so dataflow does not see equivalent
pre/post-order pairs as distinct nodes.
Two AST tweaks for the new CFG:
- AstNodeImpl: omit PEP 695 type-parameter names from
FunctionDefExpr / ClassDefExpr children.
- ImportResolution: drop the legacy essa import.
Test churn (~175 files): reblessed library- and query-test .expected
files reflect slightly different CFG granularity, different toString
output, and a handful of true alert deltas in security queries.
Verification: all 367 lib + src + consistency-queries compile clean.

As discussed in a meeting today, this will end up presenting an query
suite that's easier to use for customers.
Since https://github.com/github/codeql/pull/6589 has JUST been merged,
if we get this change in fast enough, no end-user will ever have run
`py/sqlalchemy-textclause-injection` as part of LGTM.com or Code
Scanning.
We were mixing between things, so this is just to keep things
consistent. Even though it's not strictly needed for all queries,
it does look nice I think
