updating state outside of an $effect gives a warning.

[delay]

Describe the bug

This warning may need to be removed...

State referenced in its own scope will never update. Did you mean to reference it inside a closure?

<script>
    let name = $state("John");
    name = "Jane";
  </script>
  
  <h1>Hello {name}</h1>

This is taken directly from your examples on how to update state.

Reproduction

<script>
    let name = $state("John");
    name = "Jane";
  </script>
  
  <h1>Hello {name}</h1>
