Updates the CodeQL queries opted into by edk2 to a set of queries from
the standard CodeQL query package `codeql/cpp-queries`.
After testing a large number of queries the included set here were
found to be the most useful with the least number of false positives.
Some queries had a number of issues that led to them being placed on
the exclusion list so that they are not considered in the future
without the notes there being taken into account.
General details about queries available in the pack are available here:
https://codeql.github.com/codeql-query-help/cpp/
The issues found by these queries will need to be fixed over time. In
the meantime, the results will show to those that have permission in
the repo's GitHub Code Scanning area. The build will not fail due to
CodeQL issues (since they are not all fixed) but that can be enabled in
the future.

Adds a Python module to the CodeQL plugin directory that exports
functions commonly needed for Stuart-based platforms to easily
enable CodeQL in their platform build.
This functionality has already moved to edk2-pytool-extensions
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-pytool-extensions in the
`edk2toolext/codeql.py` file but edk2 is too far behind to use that.
Additional integration changes are needed in edk2 and the series
to add those has not made it past review. In the meantime, the
functions are available locally in this commit and this commit can
be reverted after edk2-pytool-extensions 0.24.1 or greater is used
in edk2.

Adds a CodeQL plugin that supports CodeQL in the build system.
1. CodeQlBuildPlugin - Generates a CodeQL database for a given build.
2. CodeQlAnalyzePlugin - Analyzes a CodeQL database and interprets
results.
3. External dependencies - Assist with downloading the CodeQL CLI and
making it available to the CodeQL plugins.
4. CodeQlQueries.qls - A C/C++ CodeQL query set run against the code.
5. Readme.md - A comprehensive readme file to help:
- Platform integrators understand how to configure the plugin
- Developers understand how to modify the plugin
- Users understand how to use the plugin
Read Readme.md for additional details.
