Description
It would be awesome if CodeQL allowed for influencing the order in which queries are run/evaluated in a [query suite](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/codeql-cli/using-the-advanced-functionality-of-the-codeql-cli/creating-codeql-query-suites#about-creating-codeql-query-suites) definition.
This would enhance the user experience of CodeQL in cases where a big query suite is run over a large project. By having a possibility to tell that certain queries should evaluate at the end, it would allow the users to stop the `codeql database analyze` and gather partial results from the already evaluated (and likely fast) queries and then re-run the analyzer to just work over the last possible queries.
