ci: add codeql code-scanning action

Effectively a trimmed down copy of main.yml, running only on
ubuntu-22.04 for now.

The action flags a handful of interesting issues and allows us to
prevent more from creeping in.

The action does not need need docs/manpages so we disable those.

v2:
 - script lives in .github/
