link param

Expected Behavior

Linking (via @link) to a method by name from an @param of another method in the same class should work and not cause an error.

Actual Behavior

This error is produced:

warning Failed to resolve {@link anotherMethod} in MyClass.aMethod.aParam with declaration references. This link will break in v0.24.

VSCode properly handles the link within the quick info UI

Steps to reproduce the bug

• For TypeStrong/typedoc#2031 typedoc-repros#18

class MyClass {

  /**
   * Documentation for aMethod()
   *
   * This is OK: {@link anotherMethod}
   *
   * @param aParam But this produces an error: {@link anotherMethod}
   */
  aMethod(aParam: number) {

  }

  /**
   * Documentation for anotherMethod()
   */
  anotherMethod() {

  }
}

Environment

• Typedoc version: 0.23.10
• TypeScript version: 4.7.3
