Description
If I have an export from a file (but especially a default export) I would expect that `() => import(fileName)` would be found when I find all references for the default export. But it does not.
Compiler version 5.8.3
VSCode extension version 1.99.3
Thank you!

Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the missing reference for a default export used in `import(fileName)` with TypeScript 5.8.3 and inspect the find-all-references implementation and existing reference tests. Done means the dynamic import usage is included when finding references to the exported symbol.
