Bug: error when exporting indirect class

[typhonrt]

ESDoc does not support export of indirect class instances. The following gives a simple test case.

'use strict';

class Test2 {}

class Test
{
   constructor()
   {
      this.Test2 = Test2;
   }
}
const test = new Test();

export default new test.Test2();

This will work, but is an undesirable workaround:

'use strict';

class Test2 {}

class Test
{
   constructor()
   {
      this.Test2 = Test2;
   }
}
const test = new Test();

const test2 = new test.Test2();

export default test2;

In my day to day usage of ESDoc this pops up when I try to export a Backbone.Events instance. Like the test example above Backbone is a composed class at runtime. IE this fails like the test case above:

'use strict';

import Backbone   from 'backbone';

export default new Backbone.Events();

Here is the stack trace. Note that I am using typhonjs-core-gulptasks which uses gulp-esdoc which embeds esdoc. I shortened the paths so ignore <FILEPATH>. The ESDoc version being used is 0.4.3.
