This does not actually matter in practice, since TPositionalArgumentPosition limits positions to be non-negative, however it still makes sense to fix.

Pull request overview
This PR fixes a performance bug that was introduced in a previous call refactor PR. The bug was caused by using the instanceof pattern instead of multiple inheritance in QL class definitions.
- Changed
CallExprMethodCallfrom usinginstanceofrestriction to proper multiple inheritance - Added defensive constraint
i >= 0togetPositionalArgumentinOperationMethodCall - Updated test expectations to reflect the corrected dataflow behavior

I accidentally merged #20863 a bit too quick; the DCA experiment I ran after addressing review comments revealed a performance bug, which was caused by this change.
