This frees `Class.qll`, `Exprs.qll`, and `Function.qll` from the
clutches of points-to. For the somewhat complicated setup with
`getLiteralObject` (an abstract method), I opted for a slightly ugly but
workable solution of just defining a predicate on `ImmutableLiteral`
that inlines each predicate body, special-cased to the specific instance
to which it applies.
For now, these have just been made into `private` imports. After doing
this, I went through all of the (now not compiling) files and added in
private imports to the modules that they actually depended on.
I also added an explicit import of `LegacyPointsTo` (even though it may
be unnecessary) in cases where the points-to dependency was somewhat
surprising (and one we want to get rid of). This was primarily inside
the various SSA layers.
For modules inside `semmle.python.{types, objects, pointsto}` I did not
bother, as these are fairly clearly related to points-to.
I wasn't entirely sure if this should be classified as `deprecated` or
`breaking`, but seeing as these changes technically _could_ break
existing queries (requiring a small rewrite), I opted for the latter.
Moves the existing points-to predicates to the newly added class
`ControlFlowNodeWithPointsTo` which resides in the `LegacyPointsTo`
module.
(Existing code that uses these predicates should import this module, and
references to `ControlFlowNode` should be changed to
`ControlFlowNodeWithPointsTo`.)
Also updates all existing points-to based code to do just this.
It seems `_ERR_MSG` was silently removed in Python 3.14, leading to an
`ImportError` when running the extractor.
To fix this, we explicitly set `_ERR_MSG` when the existing import fails
(using `_ERR_MSG_PREFIX` which is available in Python 3.14+, along with
the bits that make up the difference between this and `_ERR_MSG`).
The base source is in basic-overlay-eval/orig_src,
the overlay source is in basic-full-eval.
We run two tests: a full evaluation test in basic-full-eval,
and an overlay evaluation test in basic-overlay-eval.
The test source and expected results are the SAME,
due to the .qlref, meaning we expect the same results
for full and overlay evaluation.

- Unify discardable entities under one Discardable superclass.
- Two discard predicates depending on TRAP ID type.
- Future-proof the XML and Yaml discard predicates for when their
extractors become incremental.
- fall back to full extraction on overlay changes json read error
- we filter both root modules and (transitive) imports against the overlay-changes json.
