Python: add new shared-SSA-backed SSA adapter

Preparatory refactor for the shared-CFG dataflow migration. Adds the
new Python SSA adapter additively, without changing any production
behaviour.

Library additions:

- semmle.python.dataflow.new.internal.SsaImpl — Python SSA
  implementation built on the new (shared) CFG. Mirrors the Java SSA
  adapter (java/ql/lib/semmle/code/java/dataflow/internal/SsaImpl.qll):
  an InputSig is defined in terms of positional (BasicBlock, int)
  variable references, and the shared
  codeql.ssa.Ssa::Make<Location, Cfg, Input> module is then
  instantiated.

  SourceVariable is the AST-level Py::Variable. Variable references
  are looked up via the new CFG facade's NameNode.defines/uses/deletes
  predicates (added in the preceding PR), which themselves are
  one-line bridges to AST-level Name.defines/uses/deletes.

  Implicit-entry definitions are inserted for non-local/global/builtin
  reads, captured variables, and (when needed) parameters.

Test additions:

- library-tests/dataflow-new-ssa/ — exercises the new SSA over a
  representative test corpus and checks expected def/use chains.

- library-tests/dataflow-new-ssa-vs-legacy/ — runs both new SSA and
  legacy ESSA over the same corpus and diffs the results, so any
  semantic divergence shows up as a test failure.

Production impact:

None. The new SSA adapter has zero callers in lib/ and src/ — the
legacy ESSA SSA (semmle/python/essa/*) remains the default. The
dataflow library is not migrated yet; that lands in a follow-up PR.

Verified by:
- All 367 lib + src + consistency-queries compile clean.
- All 641 ControlFlow + PointsTo + dataflow + essa + consistency
  library-tests pass.
- Both new dataflow-new-ssa[/vs-legacy] test packs pass.

-This is an overview of changes in the CodeQL CLI and relevant CodeQL query and library packs. For additional updates on changes to the CodeQL code scanning experience, check out the `code scanning section on the GitHub blog <https://github.blog/tag/code-scanning/>`__, `relevant GitHub Changelog updates <https://github.blog/changelog/label/application-security/>`__, `changes in the CodeQL extension for Visual Studio Code <https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items/GitHub.vscode-codeql/changelog>`__, and the `CodeQL Action changelog <https://github.com/github/codeql-action/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md>`__.
-
-Security Coverage
------------------
-
-CodeQL 2.25.6 runs a total of 496 security queries when configured with the Default suite (covering 169 CWE). The Extended suite enables an additional 131 queries (covering 32 more CWE).
-
-CodeQL CLI
-----------
-
-Improvements
-~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-*   When the :code:`git` executable is available, CodeQL can now obtain configuration and queries from SHA-256 Git repositories, and infer Git metadata about them.
-
-Miscellaneous
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-*   The build of Eclipse Temurin OpenJDK that is used to run the CodeQL CLI has been updated to version 21.0.11.

-Bug Fixes
-~~~~~~~~~
-
-GitHub Actions
-""""""""""""""
-
-*   Adjusted (minor) help file descriptions for queries: :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/critical`, :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/high`, :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/medium`. Clarified wording on in minor point, added one more listed resource and added one more recommendation for things to check.
-
-Major Analysis Improvements
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-GitHub Actions
-""""""""""""""
-
-*   Adjusted :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/critical` to align more with other untrusted resource queries, where the alert location is the location where the artifact is obtained from (the checkout point). This aligns with the other 2 related queries. This will cause the same alerts to re-open for closed alerts of this query.
-
-Minor Analysis Improvements
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-GitHub Actions
-""""""""""""""
-
-*   Altered the alert message for clarity for queries: :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/critical`, :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/high`.
-*   The :code:`actions/unpinned-tag` query now recognizes 64-character SHA-256 commit hashes as properly pinned references, in addition to 40-character SHA-1 hashes.
-
-Query Metadata Changes
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-GitHub Actions
-""""""""""""""
-
-*   Reversed adjustment of the name of :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/high`, but kept the portion of the previous change for the word "trusted" to "privileged". Added a missing "a" to phrasing in :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/high` and :code:`actions/untrusted-checkout/medium`.

-
-*   Added flow source models for :code:`scanf_s` and related functions.
-*   Added a :code:`Call` column to :code:`LocalFlowSourceFunction::hasLocalFlowSource` and :code:`RemoteFlowSourceFunction::hasRemoteFlowSource`. The old predicates without a :code:`Call` column continue to be supported.
-
-C#
-""
-
-*   Full support for C# 14 / .NET 10. All new language features are now supported by the extractor. The QL library and data flow analysis now support the new C# 14 language constructs and include generated Models as Data (MaD) models for the .NET 10 runtime.
-*   C# 14: Added support for user-defined instance increment/decrement operators.
