Description

As you can see here the entrypoint server.ts is reported as ophan:

https://gitlab.com/Lepardo/simplewebspider-nodejs/-/jobs/612057537

So it must be an orphan, because it's the entrypoint. But is there away to ignore that one, so it's not reported as ophane?

Excluding it make no sence, then all others are ophans.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the orphan detection logic in the source code, and identify if there is a way to exclude the entrypoint. If not, propose a configuration option to ignore the entrypoint.
