Preparatory refactor for the shared-CFG dataflow migration. Switches
'import python' to 'import python as Py' inside Flow.qll, and qualifies
every AST-class reference (Expr, Bytes, Dict, AssignExpr, Compare,
Module, Scope, Call, Attribute, SsaVariable, AugAssign, etc.) with the
Py:: prefix.
Flow.qll's own CFG types (ControlFlowNode, BasicBlock, CallNode,
NameNode, DefinitionNode, CompareNode, ...) keep their unqualified
names — they remain the public CFG API exported from this file.
This is a semantic noop: the qualification was applied mechanically by
script and no name resolution changes. Verified by:
- All 361 lib/ + src/ queries compile clean.
- All 186 ControlFlow + PointsTo + dataflow library-tests pass.

Follow-up to the getAFlowNode deprecation in the same PR: same AST→legacy-CFG
bridge pattern. The 11 internal call sites (across objects/, types/,
frameworks/, and TypeTrackingImpl) are rewritten to bind a `Return ret`
explicitly, then constrain via `ret.getScope() = f and n.getNode() = ret.getValue()`.
The predicate itself is preserved with a deprecation note so external
users do not experience churn.
Semantic noop.

Preparatory refactor for the shared-CFG dataflow migration.
Deprecates the AstNode.getAFlowNode() cached predicate on the public
Python QL API and rewrites all ~140 internal callers across lib/, src/,
test/, and tools/ from `expr.getAFlowNode() = cfgNode` to
`cfgNode.getNode() = expr`, using ControlFlowNode.getNode() which
already exists in Flow.qll.
The predicate itself is preserved (with a deprecation note pointing at
the new pattern) so external users do not experience churn — they can
migrate at their own pace and the AST/CFG hierarchies still get the
intended untangling once the deprecation eventually elapses.
Semantic noop verified by:
- All 361 lib/ + src/ queries compile clean.
- All 122 ControlFlow + PointsTo library-tests pass.
- All 64 dataflow library-tests pass.
- All 113 Variables/Exceptions/Expressions/Statements/Functions/Imports/
Security/CWE-798/ModificationOfParameterWithDefault query-tests pass.

The new-dataflow ImportResolution module only used
semmle.python.essa.SsaDefinitions for the 5-line helper predicate
SsaSource::init_module_submodule_defn. Inline it locally and drop the
dependency on legacy SsaDefinitions. This is the only remaining direct
import of semmle.python.essa.* in the new dataflow stack, so dropping
it makes the layering cleaner.
Semantic noop on the current SSA: SsaSourceVariable.getName() and
GlobalVariable.getId() both project the same DB column
(variable(_,_,result)), and the old call's 'init.getEntryNode() = f'
join was just constraining init = package via Scope.getEntryNode()'s
functional uniqueness. RA dump of accesses.ql confirms only the
expected predicate-rename shuffle; all 70 dataflow + ApiGraphs library
tests pass.
This factors out commit 8cab5a20f2 from the larger shared-CFG
migration #21925.

The internal predicates that identify `@staticmethod`, `@classmethod` and
`@property` decorators previously required the decorator's `NameNode` to
satisfy `isGlobal()` (i.e. no SSA def reaches the decorator's name use).
That filter was correct but unnecessarily indirect: these three names
are builtins, and even when a class body redefines one, the class body
has not started executing at the decorator position, so Python uses the
builtin.
Match the decorator's AST `Name` directly instead, dropping the CFG/SSA
detour. The slight semantic change — `isGlobal()` would have rejected
module-level shadowing of these builtins — is negligible in practice
and explicitly documented in the change note.
`hasContextmanagerDecorator` and `hasOverloadDecorator` keep the
`NameNode.isGlobal()` check because their target names (`contextmanager`,
`overload`) are imported, not builtin, and local shadowing is a real
concern.
