TypeError: replace is not a function if {@link something} is used in any jsDoc tag

[jrencz]

I experienced a TypeError once I put {@link} in either doclet, e.g.

/**
 * Some text
 *
 * @slot foo - does something {@link http://example.com}
 */

Error originates in this line:

web-component-analyzer/src/analyze/util/js-doc-util.ts

Line 90 in bf76b43

comment: node.comment?.replace(/^\s*-\s*/, "").trim(),

(1.1.6)

It's improved in master already:

web-component-analyzer/src/analyze/util/js-doc-util.ts

Line 87 in 8810044

const comment = typeof node.comment === "string" ? node.comment.replace(/^\s*-\s*/, "").trim() : "";

In case of given example node.comment is not a string, it's:
(positions may be misleading - the example is greatly simplified comparing to the code where I replaced single line):

<ref *1> [
  NodeObject {
    pos: 1233,
    end: 1254,
    flags: 8388608,
    modifierFlagsCache: 0,

    parent: NodeObject {

      comment: [Circular *1]
    },
    kind: 321,
    text: 'foo - does something '
  },
  <ref *2> NodeObject {
    pos: 1254,

      parent: [NodeObject],
      kind: 327,
      tagName: [IdentifierObject],
      comment: [Circular *1]
    },
    kind: 324,
    name: IdentifierObject {
      pos: 1261,
      end: 1265,
      flags: 8388608,

      transformFlags: 0,
      parent: [Circular *2],
      kind: 79,
      originalKeywordKind: undefined,
      escapedText: 'http'
    },
    text: '://example.com'
  },
  pos: 1233,
  end: 1284,
  hasTrailingComma: false,
  transformFlags: 0
]

It seems to me like the comment is valid. What's more, IDE (WebStorm in my case) allows me to click the http://example.com

Additionally: if error occurs then it still exits with code 0 (doesn't fail a build) so it took me a while to figure out there's a problem
