DS analyzer: Python support - Manifest scanning: requirements.txt scanning

Description

This implementation issue covers adding requirements.txt manifest scanning capabilities to the Dependency Scanning (DS) analyzer. This manifest scanning will serve as a fallback mechanism when lock files are not available

Scope

Objective: Implement manifest scanning functionality for Python requirements.txt files

Key Components:

  • Add requirements.txt file detection and parsing logic
  • Implement dependency extraction from Python manifest files
  • Integrate with existing DS analyzer workflow as a fallback option
  • Ensure compatibility with current dependency scanning pipeline

Acceptance Criteria:

  • DS analyzer successfully detects and processes requirements.txt manifest files
  • Dependencies are correctly extracted and reported
