My proposal is suitable for this project

• I believe my proposal would be useful to the broader TypeScript community (meaning it is not a niche proposal).

Description

Right now, if you enable typed linting on an "out-of-project" file not listed inprojectService.allowDefaultProject, you get this error:

  0:0  error  Parsing error: path/to/repo/eslint.config.mjs was not found by the project service. Consider either including itin the tsconfig.json or including itin allowDefaultProject

...but what if you tried to enable it inallowDefaultProject and just mistyped? E.g. typing*.js instead of*.mjs for youreslint.config.mjs?

It'd be nice if we gave an explicit"these are your patterns, none matched". Maybe...

  0:0  error  Parsing error: path/to/repo/eslint.config.mjs was not found by the project service. Consider either including itin the tsconfig.json or including itin allowDefaultProject.  allowDefaultProject isset to ["*.js"], which does not match'eslint.config.mjs'.

Additional Info

I have personally made this mistake a bunch of times, and I co-authored the feature 😂. So I think this'd be valuable.
