doc fails to read scala.scalajs.js.Promise.then symbol

[MartinHH]

This seems similar to #14143, but the affected scala versions are much newer and the bug does not occur when downgrading to scala 3.3.1:

Compiler version

scala 3.3.3 ; 3.4.0 ; 3.4.1 ; 3.4.2

scala-js 1.16.0
sbt 1.10.0

Minimized code

package demo

import scala.scalajs.js

def bar: js.Promise[Int] = js.Promise.resolve(()).`then`(_ => 1)

# plugins.sbt
addSbtPlugin("org.scala-js" % "sbt-scalajs" % "1.16.0")

# build.sbt
ThisBuild / version := "0.1.0-SNAPSHOT"

ThisBuild / scalaVersion := "3.3.3" // or any of 3.4.0 to 3.4.2

lazy val root = (project in file("."))
  .enablePlugins(ScalaJSPlugin)
  .settings(
    name := "doc_bug_report"
  )

Expectation

No error occurs (as with scala 3.3.1).

Reproduction with Scala CLI:

//> using platform js
//> using scala 3.3.2
import scala.scalajs.js
def bar: js.Promise[Int] = js.Promise.resolve(()).`then`(_ => 1)

Last good stable version: 3.3.1
First breaking stable version: 3.3.2

[Florian3k]

Bisect:
Last good release: 3.3.2-RC1-bin-20230615-916d4e7-NIGHTLY
First bad release: 3.3.2-RC1-bin-20230619-a68568c-NIGHTLY

Reverting #18989 seems to fix this (on LTS branch at least)
