Andrew Scott ff0af64ced refactor(compiler-cli): decouple SymbolReference from AST nodes in template checker
To support the need to resolve symbols without full AST access (e.g. when using virtual files), this commit decouples `ReferenceSymbol` from `ts.ClassDeclaration`.

Changes:
- Updated `ReferenceSymbol.target` to use `SymbolReference` instead of `ts.ClassDeclaration`.
- Removed `getReferenceTargetNode()` from `SymbolDirectiveMeta` and transitioned to `getSymbolReference()`.
- Refactored `getTsSymbolOfReference` in `checker.ts` to handle `SymbolReference` and resolve it to a `ts.Symbol` using a position-optimized AST traversal. This avoids using the private `getTokenAtPosition` API and avoids full file scans by only traversing nodes containing the target position.
