Typescript resource input types are not discoverable

[EvanBoyle]

I was working on authoring a ComponentResource that required defining and exporting an input interface that used some of the existing AWS resource inputs:

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";
import { input } from "@pulumi/aws/types/index";

export interface DataWarehouseArgs {
    tableName: pulumi.Input<string>
    database?: pulumi.Input<aws.glue.CatalogDatabase>;
    columns: pulumi.Input<pulumi.Input<input.glue.CatalogTableStorageDescriptorColumn>[]>
}

I didn't get any helpful autocomplete or autoimport when adding pulumi.Input<input.glue.CatalogTableStorageDescriptorColumn. It took quite a bit of trail and error to discover that the right incantation for the import was import { input } from "@pulumi/aws/types/index";

And strangely enough, if I try to import via
import { glue } from "@pulumi/aws/types/input";
the type I'm looking for isn't available. I wasn't able to do an autoimport for input.glue.CatalogTableStorageDescriptorColumn either. However the args that the glue table constructer accepts, CatalogTableArgs did do an autoimport for import { CatalogTableArgs } from "@pulumi/aws/glue"; when I referenced it.

I brought this up with @lukehoban and he had the following to say:

This is an area where things are a little less “regular” than in other parts of how our SDKs are life out. In particular, the physical layout on disk diverges a bit from the logical namespace layout we exposed from the root index, which is what breaks importing from the physical path.

I suspect #11565 might help with this?
