Description

When importing icons via the @carbon/react/icons re-export, no auto-completions are provided in VS Code:

versus @carbon/icons-react which looks like:

It doesn't look like the IDE auto-completion is smart enough to follow the combination of Object.keys and Object.defineProperty to provide the exhaustive list of icons that are available at runtime/build time.

Though I'm not sure exactly how to accomplish it, it seems like a more direct re-export of the icons from the required module would be what is needed to get past this.

There's also an info message that pops up in vscode for this import which is not present on the icons-react version:

versus icons-react which has a full-blown d.ts file to which it links that provides type info:

CodeSandbox example

n/a

Steps to reproduce

1. Install @carbon/react into a React project
2. Open a component file in an IDE like VS Code
3. Attempt to import an icon from @carbon/react/icons
4. Observe that the auto-complete list does not show any of the available icons
