Description

```
[
'error',
{
missingExports: true,
unusedExports: false,
src: [
'/my/project'
],
ignoreExports: [ '**/index.js', '**/build/**', '**/dist/**' ]
}
]
```

but `/my/project/src/index.js` reports `No exports found` from `import/no-unused-modules` even though it is in ignoreExports?

Research direction

Start at the import/no-unused-modules rule and reproduce the configuration shown against /my/project/src/index.js. Trace how ignoreExports is matched, then verify that an ignored index.js no longer reports “No exports found” while the other configured checks still behave as expected.
