Add CodeQL Workflow for Code Security Analysis

This pull request introduces a CodeQL workflow to enhance the security analysis of our repository.
CodeQL is a powerful static analysis tool that helps identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities in
our codebase. By integrating this workflow into our GitHub Actions, we can proactively identify
and address potential issues before they become security threats.

We added a new CodeQL workflow file (.github/workflows/codeql.yml) that
- Runs on nightly-run, and consider runs on every pull request to the main branch in the future.
- Excludes queries with a high false positive rate or low-severity findings.
- Does not display results for third-party code, focusing only on our own codebase.

Testing:
To validate the functionality of this workflow, we have run several test scans on the codebase and
reviewed the results. The workflow successfully compiles the project, identifies issues, and provides
actionable insights while reducing noise by excluding certain queries and third-party code.

Deployment:
Once this pull request is merged, the CodeQL workflow will be active and automatically run on
every push and pull request to the main branch. To view the results of these code scans, please
follow these steps:
1. Under the repository name, click on the Security tab.
2. In the left sidebar, click Code scanning alerts.

Additional Information:
- You can further customize the workflow to adapt to your specific needs by modifying the workflow file.
- For more information on CodeQL and how to interpret its results, refer to the GitHub documentation
and the CodeQL documentation.
