re-open #111 (2015) every single class in project is NOT named default

This issue is previously defined as #111 export default class Anything.

Expected Behavior

it should use name given to default exports instead of having multiple default identifiers. I do not care if it uses the name assigned to it in the import declaration or the name given in the export default binding (although the former makes most sense to me).

It's very common in enterprise/OO codebases for each file to have a single export default class UsefulName { ... } however with typedoc literally everything will be called default and thus the generated documentation will be almost useless

Actual Behavior

it uses multiple ambiguous default identifiers.

Steps to reproduce the bug

self explanatory

Environment

Note that I'm targeting esm and import statements end with .js because typescript is poorly designed, not sure if that's relevant

• Typedoc version: 0.22.18
• TypeScript version: 4.7.3
• Node.js version: v18.3.0

The plugin above is the recommended way to handle this case. TypeDoc works by export names, for which default is the correct name.
