[api-extractor] Canonical names are getting suffixed with _2 unnecessarily. #3581
Description
Summary
When running the API extractor, my interface StorageManager and interface ImageData get suffixed with a _2 in their canonical names, however, their references remain the right name.
The source code is available at https://github.com/TheDrone7/shieldbow
The source code where I am getting the issue is available in the weird-docs branch - https://github.com/TheDrone7/shieldbow/tree/weird-docs
Even after bumping to the new version, it worked right a few times but suddenly started happening a couple of hours before this issue was created.
Repro steps
Fork the repo linked above.
Simply just run the API extractor and when I went to check the extracted json file, it had _2, can be confirmed by running the npm docs:gen script and then seeing the generated docs by running docs:dev.
