Description
**Description of the issue**
This is a follow-up to #10937.
In https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/pull/51878, I am removing the exclusions for all of the slow rules mentioned in #10937, and the build now completes without timing out the builder.
But, it's running quite a bit slower than expected; reenabling all of these rules doubles the code scanning time. It appears as though all of this extra time comes from one rule: https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript/actions/runs/3688169461/jobs/6242652775#step:5:1809
```
[88/88 eval 10m18s] Evaluation done; writing results to codeql/javascript-queries/Security/CWE-094/ImproperCodeSanitization.bqrs.
```
All of the other rules complete in about 3 minutes or less, so this one seems like an outlier to be taking 3x more time than any other rule. It's not a blocker or anything, but I figured I'd report it in case there were some more perf wins to be had.
