Description

This documentation states that "The (spec) file must be named Native<MODULE_NAME>, with a .js or .jsx extension when using Flow, or a .ts, or .tsx extension when using TypeScript". However when I was creating a Turbo Module on canary last week, the codegen file would only generate if I set the file type to ts. It would not generate the codegen source if the file type was .tsx.

Research direction

Start by comparing the codegen behavior for the documented .ts and .tsx spec extensions with the Native Modules documentation linked in the issue. Done means a Turbo Module spec using .tsx generates its codegen source as the documentation states.
