Description
https://github.com/github/codeql is a project by GitHub which is to put it simply is SQL for codebases. CodeQL queries are used by LGTM for static analysis of bad code practices.
The more interesting use of CodeQL is in finding security vulnerabilities, the way this works is you run a query designed to find say `CVE-a` on any codebase, and CodeQL determines whether the query is satisfied by the codebase(if yes than the codebase is vulnerable to `CVE-a` ).

We should collect such queries and link them to `Vulnerability` objects.
