ok, i fixed the issue with index.js in master, but i've rebased this PR on top of that, since this is probably a better outcome still :-)

@ljharb Hi. Thanks for your review. I've addressed all your previous comments.

In addition to that, I was thinking why we have issues like #3838 even if we have .github/workflows/type-check.yml to check the built types. I found there are three issues in the CI workflow and I fixed them.

1. In test-published-types/index.js, to make the typescript to check the type, we need to create a variable first and export it later

// Bad
/** @type {import('eslint').Linter.Config[]} */
module.exports = [ ... ] 

// Good
/** @type {import('eslint').Linter.Config[]} */
const config = [ ... ]
module.exports = config;

2. In test-published-types/package.json, if we use "eslint-plugin-react": "file:..", we would copy/link all node_modules under eslint-plugin-react to test-published-types/node_modules/eslint-plugin-react/node_modules. This is problematic because test-published-types use the built-in types from the latest eslint, while eslint-plugin-react use the deprecated @types/eslint. They have conflict.

   I fixed this by packing eslint-plugin-react into a .taz file and install it later. By doing that, @types/eslint, which is a dev dependency of eslint-plugin-react, won't be installed under test-published-types.

3. There is a small issue in the eslint's type declarations:

$ cd test-published-types
$ npx tsc --lib es2015
   
node_modules/eslint/lib/types/index.d.ts:928:81 - error TS2574: A rest element type must be an array type.

928     type RuleSeverityAndOptions<Options extends any[] = any[]> = [RuleSeverity, ...Partial<Options>];
                                                                                    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I need to fix it by adding "skipLibCheck": false in test-published-types/tsconfig.json.
