Research direction
Start by locating getOwnEmitOutputFilePath and reviewing how the compiler API exposes related emit-path functionality. Confirm the expected behavior for outDir and rootDir, then identify the relevant API/export tests; done means the method is publicly available and returns the source file's expected output filename.
