Regression: `@linkcode` neither produces link nor is symbol displayed as inline code

linkcode

Expected Behavior

“SomeClass” in the description for constructor should:

1. Link to SomeClass.
2. Be rendered as inline code.

export SomeClass {

    /**
     * Creates an instance of {@linkcode SomeClass}.
     */
    constructor() { }

}

This is working with TypeDoc v0.27.9, but fails to produce the same expected output starting with v0.28.0.

Actual Behavior

The symbol is displayed as plain text.

Steps to reproduce the bug
