chore(flask): avoid using deprecated internals (#4433) (#4440)

The following flask attributes have been deprecated in flask v2.2.2 and will be removed in the next minor release:

    flask. _app_ctx_stack
    flask. _request_ctx_stack

This change replaces deprecated methods with flask globals (flask.current_app and flask.request).

(cherry picked from commit 61f0177)
