return fields properties

Expected Behavior

Input:

export function foo() {
  const x = {
    /**
     * This one is fine.
     */
    a: 1,
  };
  return {
    /**
     * This one is missing.
     */
    x,
  };
}

Output:

Includes both comments.

Actual Behavior

The This one is missing. comment is not included.

But note that TypeScript has no problem generating a correct declaration file with the comment:

export declare function foo(): {
    /**
     * This one is missing.
     */
    x: {
        /**
         * This one is fine.
         */
        a: number;
    };
};

Steps to reproduce the bug

As shown above.

Environment

• Typedoc version: 0.25.13
• TypeScript version: 5.0.4
• Node.js version: 18.17.0
• OS: macOS
