I am trying KSP2 with KSP 1.9.23-1.0.19.
It seems that KSP2 cannot correctly obtain the KClass type elements of annotations.

Suppose there is an annotation like this:

annotation class MyAnnotation(val type: KClass<*> = String::class)

When retrieving the type element in SymbolProcessor, it returns a KSErrorType.

val annotation = symbol.annotations.first { it.shortName.asString() == MyAnnotation::class.simpleName }
val type = annotation.arguments.first().value
env.logger.warn("type: $type") // type: <ERROR TYPE>

Is this a known issue?
