Module resolution: ambient JSON wildcard module doesn't override `resolveJsonModule` typing

Personne n'a encore pris cette issue.

### Demo Repo

https://github.com/niedzielski/2025-12-23-tsc-resolve-json-ambient-wildcard

### Which of the following problems are you reporting?

The module specifier resolves to the right file, but something about the types are wrong

### Demonstrate the defect described above with a code sample.

When `resolveJsonModule` is set, the imported JSON file's typing is used instead of the ambient module typing.

```ts
// schema-decl.d.ts
declare module '*.schema.json' {
const json: import("./schema.js").Schema
export default json
}
```

```ts
// index.ts
// Typed as JSON interpretation from file instead of ambient module.
import schemaJSON from './instance.schema.json' with { type: 'json' }
```

```jsonc
// tsconfig.json
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "esnext",
"moduleResolution": "bundler",
"resolveJsonModule": true,
"noEmit": true
}
}
```

### Run `tsc --showConfig` and paste its output here
```json
{
"compilerOptions": {
"module": "esnext",
"moduleResolution": "bundler",
"resolveJsonModule": true,
"noEmit": true,
"allowSyntheticDefaultImports": true,
"resolvePackageJsonExports": true,
"resolvePackageJsonImports": true
},
"files": [
"./index.ts",
"./schema-decl.d.ts",
"./schema.ts"
]
}
```

### Paste the `package.json` of the *importing* module, if it exists
```json
{
"name": "foo",
"version": "0.0.0",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"test": "npx tsc"
},
"keywords": [],
"author": "Stephen Niedzielski (https://oidoid.com/)",
"license": "AGPL-3.0-only",
"description": "",
"devDependencies": {
"typescript": "5.9.3"
}
}
```

### Paste the `package.json` of the *target* module, if it exists

Same as importing module.

### Any other comments can go here

Overriding JSON typing is an important feature for custom schemas. The workarounds now are:

1. Cast.
2. Use a non-JSON extension. For example, `*.jsonc` works.
3. Disable `resolveJsonModule`.
4. Instead of a wildcard, hardcode the module declarations to specific files.

Commencez par le dépôt de démonstration lié, puis exécutez la configuration tsc fournie et la trace de résolution afin de comparer le typage ambiant de schema-decl.d.ts avec le comportement de resolveJsonModule pour index.ts. C’est terminé lorsque le type Schema de la déclaration wildcard ambiante est respecté pour le JSON importé, tandis que la résolution des modules trouve toujours le bon fichier.
