✨ feature: recognize type imports in jsdoc

Dependency-cruiser now has the ability to recognize imports in jsdoc - both the new ones introduced in TS5.5 (e.g. /** @import { something } from "blah"; */), as well as the older ones (e.g. /** @type {import('blah').something} */). It's behind an option so it will only detect them if you want it to.

Thanks to @louwers for raising the associated issue and testing a very early version of PR #965

• See detectJSDocImports: detect dependencies in JSDoc comments in the options references for more information and some of the caveats (a.o. really needs the TypeScript compiler)
• The PR's also grew the dependencyTypes jsdoc, jsdoc-bracket-import and jsdoc-import-tag for use in your rules.
