Description

### Describe the Bug

Variables consumed by flow element expressions are not reconciled with their scoped written declarations. They remain scopeless in the output even when a matching written variable exists in the process.

This happens because `extractConsumedVariablesFromElements` runs after `parseVariables` Step 5 (bridge consumed usages back to uniquely scoped declarations), so its results bypass `annotateConsumedUsagesToScopedVariables` entirely.

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a process with a service task that writes a variable via output mapping (e.g. `managerReviewOutcome`)
2. Add a sequence flow with a condition expression that reads that variable (e.g. `= managerReviewOutcome = "approved"`)
3. Call `getVariables` on the process

Visualization from variable-outline perspective

### Expected Behavior

The consumed variable from the sequence flow condition should be reconciled with the scoped written declaration so that it appears as a `usedBy` entry on the written variable rather than as a separate scopeless variable.

### Environment

- Library version: 3.0.1
