Asger F bd9d6b1962 Add Go TypeScript parser wrapper integration to Java extractor
Wire the Go-based TypeScript parser wrapper as an alternative to the
Node.js wrapper. Enabled via SEMMLE_TYPESCRIPT_USE_GO_PARSER=true.

When enabled:
- Skips Node.js installation verification
- Launches the Go binary directly (no Node.js required)
- Uses the same newline-delimited JSON protocol over stdin/stdout
- Go binary path configurable via SEMMLE_TYPESCRIPT_GO_PARSER_WRAPPER
- tsgo binary path passed through via SEMMLE_TYPESCRIPT_TSGO_BINARY

The Go wrapper implements all protocol commands: get-metadata, parse,
prepare-files, reset, and quit.

JavaScript extractor

This directory contains the source code of the JavaScript extractor. The extractor depends on various libraries that are not currently bundled with the source code, so at present it cannot be built in isolation.

The extractor consists of a parser for the latest version of ECMAScript, including a few proposed and historic extensions (see src/com/semmle/jcorn), classes for representing JavaScript and TypeScript ASTs (src/com/semmle/js/ast and src/com/semmle/ts/ast), and various other bits of functionality. Historically, the main entry point of the JavaScript extractor has been com.semmle.js.extractor.Main. However, this class is slowly being phased out in favour of com.semmle.js.extractor.AutoBuild, which is the entry point used by CodeQL.
