CommonJS CommonJS — require() works on every Node.js version

@typescript-eslint/types ships CommonJS only. require("@typescript-eslint/types") works everywhere. import "@typescript-eslint/types" also works because Node.js and Bun can import CommonJS from ES modules, but only the default export is guaranteed; named imports depend on Node's static analysis of the module.
