Research direction

Reproduce the two reported class declarations and compare their parsing with the working examples in the issue. Trace the TypeScript parser's handling of class heritage clauses and computed or non-null-asserted expressions, then add regression coverage for both forms. Done means both snippets are parsed with the intended superclass while existing examples remain unchanged.
