http://nickfever.com/music/midi-cc-list

I'm a software developer but do not have a map of the lmms codebase. If someone could point me in the right direction/ the file import midi is in , I'd be happy to take a look.

Research direction

Start by locating LMMS's MIDI import entry point and tracing how controller changes for CC 63/64 are handled, using the linked MIDI controller reference for expected behavior. Done means importing a MIDI file preserves its sustain-pedal events.
