Fix update core dependencies
The "update core dependencies" workflow is broken again, see log:

The problem is that ESLint version 9 has been released, but TypeScript ESLint doesn't support it yet. I worked around it by making ncu -u ignore eslint for now.
That said, perhaps it would be better if this workflow only updated the actual "core dependencies"? npm-check-updates accepts a filter argument, so we could do something like this instead:
ncu -u '/^@mdn/' '/^@webref/'
This has never been problem for this long, it has been okay for many years. I guess ESLint 9 contains a lot of huge breaking changes? And yes I think it would be better to have a separate job rather than having a temporary workaround.
(Edit: I mean, it's not "broken again", it has been broken with the same error for several weeks and I was expecting it would be solved very soon.)
ESLint 9 changed the default configuration format to the new "flat config". So we'd need to migrate to the new format, or throw ESLINT_USE_FLAT_CONFIG=false into the mix. But either way, it won't be an "automatic" upgrade, we need to make some changes.
Indeed, it looks like we'll need an alpha release of typescript-eslint for now, but I can give it a shot if you want?
Never mind, that alpha version still only supports ESLint v8. Support for ESLint v9 is still being worked on in https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint/pull/9002, so we cannot update to v9 at the moment.
I'll see if I can migrate us to the flat config format already. That should hopefully make it easier to update to v9 once TypeScript ESLint adds support.
That should do it.
The next workflow run should properly update the dependencies again:
$ ncu -u -x eslint -x @eslint/js
Upgrading TypeScript-DOM-lib-generator/package.json
[====================] 24/24 100%
@mdn/browser-compat-data ^5.5.21 → ^5.5.23
@webref/css ^6.12.7 → ^6.12.9
@webref/idl ^3.46.1 → ^3.47.1
Run npm install to install new versions.
But again, should we try only updating "core dependencies" rather than doing a temporary workaround? I just opened #1709 which will let Dependabot to do things better, after that this job won't need to update other deps. (It did mostly because Dependabot had no group update, but now it has.)
I ended up reading #1709 and #1708 out of order. Now that #1709 is merged, only the eslint config update is needed, right?
https://github.com/typescript-eslint/typescript-eslint/pull/9002 is still open, that should happen too.
Looks like the dependency tree is now good per #1768, I think we can rebase this and we should be good to go.
That auto migration unnecessarily added FlatCompat, would be nice to rebase this and remove that.
Closing this PR in favor for #1784, which focuses on just the ESLint flat config migration.
