GHCi doesn't track files added by addDependentFile in TH

Summary

Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax.addDependentFile causes external files to be tracked for recompilation at least with ghc --make. However it seems to have no effect in ghci.

Steps to reproduce

Load the following file in ghci with some text saved in foo:

{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
import Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax

$(addDependentFile "foo" >> return [])

Edit foo and reload ghci with :r.

Expected behavior

I would expect to see [1 of 1] Compiling Main. Instead just Ok, one module loaded.

Environment

• GHC version used: 8.10.1
