Description

Instead of `require('ts-mutex')` I would like to use the increasingly-common import syntax:

`import Mutex from "ts-mutex"`

This only works if you turn on TS' `esModuleInterop` in tsconfig.

` "esModuleInterop": true, /* Enables emit interoperability between CommonJS and ES Modules via creation of namespace objects for all imports. Implies 'allowSyntheticDefaultImports'. */
`

I think basically you need to emit a namespace for ts-mutex.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by locating the package export entry point, TypeScript declarations, and build configuration, then check how both require('ts-mutex') and the requested default import are resolved. Done means the import syntax works without requiring esModuleInterop while preserving the existing require usage.
