Description

I'm using TypeSpec with typify to make rust type up to date with json schema.

It would be nice to have a way to use super and crate in x-rust-type (it doesn't compile because rust doesn't allow ::crate), so that I can workaround #862 .

Research direction

Begin with typify’s handling of the x-rust-type extension and review issue #862 for the motivating workaround. Determine where Rust paths containing super or crate are rendered, then confirm the generated type compiles without the invalid ::crate form.
