Description
### What happened?
`ts_project(name = "foo", transpiler=swc)` will produce several targets, as documented: https://github.com/aspect-build/rules_ts/blob/main/docs/transpiler.md#macro-expansion
The `:foo` target is a `js_library(srcs=[])` so there's no point linting it. The target with `srcs=["my.ts"]` is the `:foo_typings` target that doesn't appear in the BUILD file.
So an end-user will have a hard time linting a single ts_project in this case.

Research direction
Start with the ts_project macro expansion described in docs/transpiler.md, then inspect how linting resolves the :foo target versus the generated :foo_typings target. Reproduce the swc case if possible and verify that linting a single ts_project selects the target containing my.ts rather than the empty js_library target.
