What happened?

Audit class and similarly named Audit namespace are both exported from the index:

What did you expect?

When import type { Audit } from 'lighthouse' class takes precedence, making it impossible to use the Audit namespace.

What have you tried?

I can deep-import it from types/lh.js, but I'd rather not import from the internal implementation.

Some ideas

You could rename the Audit export to IAudit (NAudit whatever..), but that would probably be a breaking change, since the namespace can be exported like this:

export * from 'lighthouse/types/lh.js'
export as namespace LH

Could export types separately, package.json:

{
  "exports": {
    "types": "types/lh.js"
  }
}

Or mark Audit namespace deprecated over IAudit etc.

Also import/export eslint rule might catch collisions like this.

Or maybe there's a way to make TS prefer the namespace export that I don't know of.
