Type Parameter Definitions in Arrow Functions breaks TSX syntax highlighting

Support Bug Reports

Problem description:
I was in a TSX file, created an arrow function, and added a Type Parameter T (shown below)

And the syntax highlighting got ripped to pieces

It seems to be parsing them as JSX instead of default Typescript.

Expected behavior:
Syntax Highlighting should not detect and highlight Type Parameters as JSX in TSX files

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a Typescript Repl
  2. Make sure LSP works
  3. Create a tsx file
  4. Create a react component and return some basic JSX (an empty div would work)
  5. Within the component, define an arrow function with type parameters
const testFunction = <T = any>(asdf: string) => asdf;
  1. Syntax highlighting will break.
