Description

Right now in v8, I can't get parserOptions.projectService.allowDefaultProject to actually allow an eslint.config.js file. Neither 'eslint.config.js' nor './eslint.config.js' are working. Both result in an error message trying to lint:

$ npx eslint eslint.config.js

/Users/josh/repos/typescript-eslint-examples/packages/eslint-plugin-example-typed-linting/eslint.config.js
  0:0  error  Parsing error: /Users/josh/repos/typescript-eslint-examples/packages/eslint-plugin-example-typed-linting/eslint.config.js was not found by the project service. Consider either including it in the tsconfig.json or including it in allowDefaultProject

As reported by @RebeccaStevens in Discord (https://discord.com/channels/1026804805894672454/1228823100070821989/1266272722946621470), the globs are being matched against the full file path, not the relevant one.

From some console logging:

"filePathMatchedBy": {
  "filePath": "/Users/josh/repos/typescript-eslint-examples/packages/eslint-plugin-example-typed-linting/eslint.config.js",
  "allowDefaultProject": [ "eslint.config.js" ]
}
