problem

Certain incorrect (ns) forms aren't diagnosed as incorrect by clj-kondo, even tho they're covered by clojure's core specs.

(ns example
  [java.awt.image BufferedImage]
  [javax.imageio ImageIO]
  [java.io File])

$ clj-kondo --lint example.clj
linting took 40ms, errors: 0, warnings: 0

$ clojure -M example.clj
Syntax error macroexpanding clojure.core/ns at (example.clj:1:1).
([java.awt.image BufferedImage] [javax.imageio ImageIO] [java.io File]) - failed: Extra input spec: :clojure.core.specs.alpha/ns-form

expected behavior

(ns) forms should be linted according to the clojure core specs (as well as the various existing clj-kondo lints).

I'm willing to attempt the fix here.
