Description

main.rs:

fn main() {
    T$0;
}

include!("includeme.rs");

includeme.rs:

macro_rules! m {
    () => {
        pub struct T;
    };
}

m!();

Invoking Go To Def here takes you only to the include! invocation, not the m!() invocation inside the included file

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with the provided main.rs and includeme.rs files, then start by tracing Go To Definition through the include! and inner macro expansion paths. Done means invoking Go To Definition on T reaches the m!() invocation in includeme.rs rather than stopping at the include! call.
