Description

**Description of the false positive**

When using the new [](https://vuejs.org/api/sfc-script-setup.html) in vue sfcs the top-level functions/variables are automatically exposed to the template.

Since they are not used inside the `<script>` lgtm.com marks them as unused, despite them being referenced from the template.

```vue
<template>
<button @click="log">{{ msg }}</button>
</template>

<script setup>
// variable
const msg = 'Hello!'

// functions
const log = () => {
console.log(msg)
}

```
