Link import code broken since 9.5.0 (Type error: Cannot use namespace 'Link' as a type.)

See original GitHub issue

Bug report

Describe the bug

Since 9.5.0 our app won’t compile as the module code contains the Link type followed straight by a Namespace and exports the Namespace instead of the type.

Module code:

To Reproduce

https://github.com/amido/stacks-webapp-template/blob/master/packages/scaffolding-cli/templates/src/ssr/components/Link/index.tsx

Using code like the above compile the application with node_modules/.bin/tsc --project tsconfig.server.json and then node_modules/.bin/next build.

Expected behavior

Compiles correctly.

System information

OS: Windows, Cygwin or Ubuntu
Browser N/A
Version of Next.js: >9.5.0
Version of Node.js: v12.13.0 or 12.18.3

@ElvenSpellmaker No, Link["props"] isn’t valid, Link is a value, not a type. Meanwhile LinkProps is a type designed for this case.
