Storybook: No props table appear within docs on typescript when exported from another file

[sney-js]

Describe the bug
It seems like unless the types are in the same file as the Component, it is not shown within @addons/docs prop section.

To Reproduce
The code below for a react component SHOWS props within the docs section.
Button.tsx:

...

type ButtonProps = {
  title?: string;
  appearance?: 'primary' | 'inverse' | 'invisible';
};

const Button: FC<ButtonProps> = (props: ButtonProps) => {
...
}

Button.stories.tsx:

import React from 'react';
import Button from './Button';

export default {
  title: 'Elements|Button',
  component: Button
};

const Basic = () => <Button title="test" />

But if I move the ButtonProps type to another file, types table does not work:

...
import { ButtonProps } from './ButtonModels';
const Button: FC<ButtonProps> = (props: ButtonProps) => {
...
}

Expected behavior
Regardless of where the types are exported from, types table should show?

This is supported byreact-docgen-typescript and we'll be making it easier to switch between the two as a consequence of this shortcoming in react-docgen.

A few weeks ago we released zero-config typescript support in 6.0-beta, and then a few days ago upgraded react-docgen-typescript-loader to react-docgen-typescript-plugin in the latest beta. This will solve many typescript props-related issues, possibly including this one:

• Migration instructions
• Updated docs

Please try it out!
