Reflection: Cannot reflect service that imports from another file: `file ... included an unresolvable reference`

[robrichard]

Problem description

I am not able to use reflection after setting up @grpc/reflection. Attempting to reflect any service that imports a message from another file gives an error similar to

Error invoking method "hello_world.HelloWorldService/helloWorld": failed to query for service descriptor "hello_world.HelloWorldService": file "hello_world.proto" included an unresolvable reference to ".hello_world.hello_world_service.HelloWorldRequest"
