Andrew Eisenberg 2c5dd2dfa3 Packaging: Refactor the cpp libraries
This PR separates the core cpp packs into `codeql/cpp-queries` and
`codeql/cpp-all`.

There are very few lines of code changed. Almost all changes are moving
files around.

/**
* Provides a library for local (intra-procedural) and global (inter-procedural)
* data flow analysis: deciding whether data can flow from a _source_ to a
* _sink_.
*
* Unless configured otherwise, _flow_ means that the exact value of
* the source may reach the sink. We do not track flow across pointer
* dereferences or array indexing. To track these types of flow, where the
* exact value may not be preserved, import
* `semmle.code.cpp.dataflow.TaintTracking`.
*
* To use global (interprocedural) data flow, extend the class
* `DataFlow::Configuration` as documented on that class. To use local
* (intraprocedural) data flow between expressions, call
* `DataFlow::localExprFlow`. For more general cases of local data flow, call
* `DataFlow::localFlow` or `DataFlow::localFlowStep` with arguments of type
* `DataFlow::Node`.
