Repro Code

// a.tsexporttypeFoo={bar:42}

// b.tsimport{Foo}from'./a.js'/** *@see {@link Foo.bar} */exportfunctionexample(){}

ESLint Config

module.exports={parser:"@typescript-eslint/parser",rules:{"@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars":["error"],},};

tsconfig

{"compilerOptions": {  }}

Expected Result

Foo is used in JsDoc, and correctly references the original definition in vs-code (alt + click goes to the definition)

Actual Result

@typescript-eslint/no-unused-vars considers this is an unused var, while typescript does not.

Additional Info

Note that if the reference is removed from the JSdoc, typescript starts complaining about an unused var as well.
