The previous commits fixed issues with these queries across various
packages. Now that those are resolved, enable the queries in the
edk2 query set so regressions can be found in the future.
Enables:
1. cpp/conditionallyuninitializedvariable
- CWE: https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/457.html
- @name Conditionally uninitialized variable
- @description An initialization function is used to initialize a
local variable, but the returned status code is
not checked. The variable may be left in an
uninitialized state, and reading the variable may
result in undefined behavior.
- @kind problem
- @problem.severity warning
- @security-severity 7.8

2. cpp/pointer-overflow-check
- CWE: https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/758.html
- @name Pointer overflow check
- @description Adding a value to a pointer to check if it
overflows relies on undefined behavior and
may lead to memory corruption.

3. cpp/potential-buffer-overflow
- CWE: https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/676.html
- @name Potential buffer overflow
- @description Using a library function that does not check
buffer bounds requires the surrounding program
to be very carefully written to avoid buffer
overflows.

- @deprecated This query is deprecated, use
Potentially overrunning write
(`cpp/overrunning-write`) and
Potentially overrunning write with float to string
conversion
(`cpp/overrunning-write-with-float`) instead.
Note that cpp/potential-buffer-overflow is deprecated. This query
will be updated to the succeeding queries in the next commit. The
query is used in this commit to show that we considered and tested
the query in history.

The query cpp/conditionallyuninitializedvariable was initially
enabled with the CodeQL code because work was in progress on those
changes. The results were filtered out so CodeQL passed so we could
verify the CodeQL workflow without impacting CI results.
This change allows error severity messages and substitutes that query
with two queries that do not return failures. This allows these
queries to find future problems and prepares the CodeQL workflow to
catch future failures as queries are enabled.

Adds initial support for enabling CodeQL Code Scanning in this
repository per the RFC:
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/discussions/3258
Adds the following new files:
- .github/workflows/codql-analysis.yml - The main GitHub workflow
file used to setup CodeQL in the repo.
- .github/codeql/codeql-config.yml - The main CodeQL configuration
file used to customize the queries and other resources the repo
is using for CodeQL.
- edk2.qls - A query set of queries to run for CodeQL.
