Research direction

Search the repository for Module.CodeFiles and inspect its declarations, references, and any related tests or documentation. Rename the API and its references so the name clearly indicates that it contains additional target-language code for automatic compilation; update coverage for the renamed member if tests exist.

Description

enhancement

A user added *.c files to Module.CodeFiles and was surprised they weren't parsed. We need to indicate that CodeFiles serves for additional code in the target language to include in automatic compilation.
