ci(codeql): add custom configuration to reduce false positives (#102)
Add CodeQL configuration file to: - Exclude auto-generated api/api.go (oapi-codegen output) - Exclude development-only Python scripts (OAuth stub, deployment tools) - Filter out py/clear-text-logging-sensitive-data from dev scripts - Document GORM map-based query false positives with dismissal instructions The GORM map-based Where() queries are flagged as SQL injection but are actually safe because GORM parameterizes all values internally. These need manual dismissal in GitHub as "False positive" with the reason: "GORM map-based queries are parameterized internally" Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# KNOWN FALSE POSITIVES - GORM Map-Based Queries (go/sql-injection)
30+
# =============================================================================
31+
# CodeQL flags GORM's map-based Where() queries as SQL injection vulnerabilities.
32+
# These are FALSE POSITIVES because GORM parameterizes all values internally.
33+
#
34+
# Pattern flagged:
35+
# db.Where(map[string]interface{}{"column_name": userValue}).First(&entity)
36+
#
37+
# Why it's safe:
38+
# 1. Map keys are hard-coded field names (not user input)
39+
# 2. GORM converts keys to column names via its naming strategy
40+
# 3. Values are parameterized - GORM generates "WHERE column = ?" with bound params
41+
# 4. This pattern is used for Oracle cross-database compatibility
42+
#
43+
# Affected files (dismiss these alerts in GitHub):
44+
# - auth/repository/user_repository.go:64 (GetByProviderID)
45+
# - api/database_store_gorm.go:42,49,55 (resolveUserIdentifierToUUID)
46+
# - api/authorization_enrichment.go:64,70,93,97,180 (user lookup queries)
47+
# - api/administrator_store_gorm.go:200,337 (group lookups)
48+
#
49+
# To dismiss: Go to Security > Code scanning alerts > Select alert > Dismiss as "False positive"
50+
# Reason: "GORM map-based queries are parameterized internally"
