Research direction

Start by examining src/top-level-await/syntax/export-var-init.template and the resulting tests to understand the existing export coverage. Add tests for destructuring in export statements, including the reported export let example, and run the relevant Test262 tests to confirm the cases pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It seems there are no tests around destructuring in export statements.

The only exception is around top-level await in src/top-level-await/syntax/export-var-init.template and the resulting tests.

So for example there are no tests around

export let [a, b] = [1, 5];

Working as expected in the current test suite.

I have now hitted this a couple of times during my work on sobek - arguably a very less known implementation, forked from goja
