Python: fix shared CFG exception-handler reachability

[yoff]

Summary

Fixes exception-handler reachability in the shared Python CFG introduced by #21921 and now present on main. Testing the dataflow switch-over in #21925 surfaced the bug.

Leaf expressions that may throw, including bare yield and plain imports, were not always connected to typed exception-handler entries. The fix uses the canonical shared-CFG injects mapping when starting exceptional completion, so these expressions reach the appropriate catch entry.

Tests

Adds focused inline coverage for:

• bare yield reaching a GeneratorExit handler;
• a plain import reaching an ImportError handler.

DCA impact

The switch-over DCA in #38556 exposed effects of the missing exception edges in mypy, CPython, and youtube-dl. Restoring these edges recovers the affected catch reachability and downstream flow.

Validation

• codeql test run python/ql/test/library-tests/ControlFlow/shared-cfg-exceptions
• codeql query format --check-only python/ql/test/library-tests/ControlFlow/shared-cfg-exceptions/ExceptionReachabilityTest.ql

Pull request overview

Fixes shared Python CFG/SSA regressions affecting exception-handler reachability and module-export phi uses.

Changes:

• Routes exceptional completion through canonical CFG nodes.
• Preserves synthetic normal-exit uses for generic SSA definitions.
• Adds regression tests for both fixes.
