load-object-before-read false positive on complex load path

[VincentPerez]

Expected behavior

No linting error

Current behavior

An explicit load call on 'selection' for property 'parentContentControlOrNullObject' needs to be made before the property can be read office-addins/load-object-before-read

Steps to Reproduce

Please provide detailed steps for reproducing the issue.

1. If I write this JS code :

  const selection = context.document.getSelection();
  selection.load('parentContentControlOrNullObject/cannotEdit');
  await context.sync();

  const parentContentControl = selection.parentContentControlOrNullObject;

2. I get a linting error that parentContentControlOrNullObject need to be loaded
