The new (shared-CFG-based) Python control flow graph in
`semmle.python.controlflow.internal.Cfg` previously did not emit CFG
nodes for parameter type annotations (`def f(x: T): ...`) or for the
return type annotation (`-> T`). The legacy CFG emitted both, and a
small number of framework models rely on this: `LocalSources.qll`'s
`annotatedInstance` walks the parameter annotation expression by way
of its CFG node to track that a parameter receives an instance of the
annotated class.
After the dataflow flip to the new CFG/SSA this regression manifested
as lost flows in any test exercising annotation-based parameter
tracking: FastAPI `Depends()` receivers, Pydantic request bodies,
Starlette `WebSocket`, the call-graph type-annotation test, and so on.
Extend `FunctionDefExpr` to visit each annotation as a child of the
function-def expression, in CPython evaluation order: positional
parameter annotations, `*args` annotation, keyword-only parameter
annotations, `**kwargs` annotation, then the return annotation. (Lambda
expressions have no annotations in Python syntax, so `LambdaExpr` is
unchanged.) PEP 695 type parameters remain out of scope; they belong
to the inner annotation scope, not the enclosing CFG.
Restored test results across `framework/aiohttp`, `framework/fastapi`,
`framework/lxml`, the `CallGraph-type-annotations` test, and
`CWE-022-PathInjection`. Two FastAPI list-comprehension MISSING markers
become positive (`taint_test.py:41,55`). CPython CFG consistency
remains clean.

Adds the public facade on top of the AstNodeImpl adapter from the
previous commit. Re-exposes the same API surface as
semmle/python/Flow.qll (ControlFlowNode, CallNode, BasicBlock,
NameNode, DefinitionNode, CompareNode, ...), backed by the shared
codeql.controlflow.ControlFlowGraph library.
- semmle.python.controlflow.internal.Cfg — public facade.
- ControlFlow/store-load/* — basic store/load coverage via the facade.
The new CFG library is added additively: it has zero callers in lib/
and src/, and the legacy CFG in semmle/python/Flow.qll remains the
default. Dataflow, SSA, and production query migration land in
follow-up PRs.

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 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.
