Incorrect warning about unused import when that import

references a nested class in the same file
is used only in a permits clause on the file's top-level class

Environment

Operating System: Win10
JDK version: 21
Visual Studio Code version: 1.85
Java extension version: v1.26.2023122208

Steps To Reproduce

The following code issues a warning in the IDE about unused imports:

package foo.x;

// these imports are warned against as unused,
// but the permits clause doesn't compile without them
import foo.x.A.B;
import foo.x.A.C;

public sealed interface A permits B, C {
    record B(int data) implements A {}
    record C(String data) implements A {}
}

Current Result

warning on the import of foo.x.A.B and foo.x.A.C

Expected Result

no warnings
