Dead-code detection: explicit exports + knip (not unimported)

The repo is migrating dead-code / unused-dependency detection from the legacy unimported tool to knip, one package at a time. The root knip.json holds only the shared rules — a package needs no workspaces entry there, since knip derives its entry files from package.json (main, bin, exports) and its own defaults (entry files).

Why this isn't just "swap the tool"

knip treats everything listed in a package's package.json#exports as an entry point. Today every package exports a ./* wildcard mapped to ./src/*.ts (via the @ledgerhq/source custom condition declared in tsconfig.base.json):

"./*": {
  "@ledgerhq/source": "./src/*.ts",
  "import": "./lib-es/*.js",
  "require": "./lib/*.js",
  "default": "./lib/*.js"
}

Because of this wildcard, knip considers every top-level src/*.ts file "used" and cannot detect unused ("zombie") top-level source files — the exact thing unimported caught (it ignored exports and diffed against a curated entry list). So real knip parity for a package requires replacing the ./* wildcard with explicit, minimal subpath exports that enumerate the package's true public API.

The few libs already pointed at knip (e.g. libs/env, libs/promise) still keep the ./* wildcard, so they are only partially migrated — do not copy them as the template.

New package = born migrated

A new package has no consumers, so it should start in the target state — no .unimportedrc.json:

1. Explicit exports only. Enumerate the real public API; do not add a ./* wildcard. Mirror the . root entry per subpath, keeping the conditions:

   "exports": {
     ".":        { "@ledgerhq/source": "./src/index.ts",  "import": "./lib-es/index.js",  "require": "./lib/index.js",  "default": "./lib/index.js" },
     "./logic":  { "@ledgerhq/source": "./src/logic.ts",  "import": "./lib-es/logic.js",  "require": "./lib/logic.js",  "default": "./lib/logic.js" },
     "./lib-es/*": "./lib-es/*.js",
     "./lib/*": "./lib/*.js",
     "./package.json": "./package.json"
   }
   

2. Use knip, not unimported — add a script that runs knip scoped to the workspace: pnpm knip --directory <relative-hop-to-root> -W <workspace-path> (--directory is the hop back to the repo root — ../.. for libs/<x>, ../../.. for libs/coin-modules/<x>; -W is the workspace path from root).
