Describe the bug

When using both a static initializer block and static properties in a typescript class A, the compiled result produces an error: Uncaught ReferenceError: Cannot access '_A' before initialization.

This is the class in question:

export class A {
  static MAP = new Map();

  static {
    Object.defineProperty(this.prototype, 'foo', { value: 123 });
  }
}

And vite compiles this to:

const _A = class {
  static {
    Object.defineProperty(_A.prototype, "foo", { value: 123 });
  }
};
export let A = _A;
A.MAP = /* @__PURE__ */ new Map();

Now this may very well be an upstream problem, but I wasn't able to figure out where it is caused. It seems that esbuild (with what little I understand of it) will produce correct results, either by compiling the static initializer into an IIFE (target es2020) or by keeping both constructs as they are (target esnext).

Maybe someone here can point me into the right direction? Maybe there's even a way to get this to work without having to wait for upstream fixes to land?
