Research direction
Reproduce the issue with the Kotlin example in A.kt and inspect the generated ACursor.java, especially its converter import and field declaration. Compare the generated output with the expected and actual snippets; the work is done when a typealias converter generates a usable converter reference instead of the nested Converter name.
