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.

Looking at the results of the the previous DCA run, there was a bunch of
false positives where `bind` was being used with a `AF_UNIX` socket (a
filesystem path encoded as a string), not a `(host, port)` tuple. These
results should be excluded from the query, as they are not vulnerable.
Ideally, we would just add `.TupleElement[0]` to the MaD sink, except we
don't actually support this in Python MaD...
So, instead I opted for a more low-tech solution: check that the
argument in question flows from a tuple in the local scope.
This eliminates a bunch of false positives on `python/cpython` leaving
behind four true positive results.
This takes care of most of the false negatives from the preceding
commit.
Additionally, we add models for some known wrappers of `socket.socket`
from the `gevent` and `eventlet` packages.
Fixed 73 .ql query files where the @name metadata contained an ending period.
This ensures consistency with the CodeQL query metadata style guidelines.
