[BUG] Routing with lazy-loaded modules from external npm module

Overview of the issue

When we access the Routing section of our Angular app, the routing is not correctly shown. Does it support lazy-loaded modules in routing?

Compodoc installed globally or locally ?

Locally as a dev dependency in packages.json

Motivation for or Use Case

I think the analysis should automatically detect when the route children are lazy loaded.

Reproduce the error

Provide a route that loads the children from another module. In my application, I have:

const routes: Routes = [
  { path: '', canActivateChild: [AuthGuard], loadChildren: './portal/portal.module#PortalModule' },
  // other routes ommitted
];

The PortalModule imports PortalRoutingModule which has another set of routes:

const routes: Routes = [
  { 
    path: '', component: PortalComponent, children: [
      { path: 'principals', canActivateChild: [AdminGuard], loadChildren: '../principals/principals.module#PrincipalsModule' },
      { path: 'dashboard', loadChildren: '../dashboard/dashboard.module#DashboardModule' },
      { path: '', pathMatch: 'full', redirectTo: 'dashboard' }
    ]
  }
];

As you can see, the initial routes also load other children modules. Right now, I see this in my generated documentation:

Any deadline for this @vogloblinsky , cannot upgrade from 1.0.9 and version is already 1.1.3.

Still see this error as I sent several times Error: Could not find the node's symbol.

Thanks for the help.
