Configuration
<!-- Paste your configuration here -->

I use Renovate to manage dependencies across several projects. I have been using the unstable_ts_config flag to use eslint.config.ts files for config. While attempting to upgrade to 9.18.0 the Renovate process fails with the error given by ESLint
Command failed: pnpm run fix
Oops! Something went wrong! :(
ESLint: 9.18.0
Error: The flag 'unstable_ts_config' is inactive: This flag is no longer required to enable TypeScript configuration files.

- I am willing to submit a pull request for this issue.
Additional comments
I understand the flag is marked "unstable" and no longer needed after 9.18.0. However, throwing an error is a breaking change, as I expect to see a deprecation warning and the flag removed in the next major ESLint version.
