This enables users to specify how and when these captures get translated. In conjunction with the context mechanism, this can be used to e.g. translate some piece of information (e.g. the type of something), record it in the context, and then recursively translate some other capture that relies on this information. This allows information to be cleanly passed into descendants (which can be written using context accesses in the `rule!` macro form). As a consequence of this change, we now need to pass around a TranslatorHandle to perform the manual translation. For Repeating rules, it doesn't really make sense to translate things, so in this case we simply signal an error. Also, the implementation of the `rule!` macro changes slightly (without changing semantics): it now essentially delegates to `Rule::new`, receiving raw captures, but then immediately applies the translation to those captures (which, for the majority of cases, is likely the desired behaviour).
CodeQL Shared Libraries
This folder contains shared, language-agnostic CodeQL libraries.
Libraries are organized into separate query packs, in order to allow for
individual versioning. For example, the shared static single assignment (SSA)
library exists in the codeql/ssa pack, which can be referenced by adding
dependencies:
codeql/ssa: 0.0.1
to qlpack.yml.
All shared libraries will belong to a codeql/<name> pack, and live in the
namespace codeql.<name>.
