feat: allow using both prettier and standardjs (#5679)
- Allow using both Prettier and StandardJS at the same time by removing
  JAVASCRIPT_DEFAULT_STYLE and TYPESCRIPT_DEFAULT_STYLE
  configuration variables. They create a confusing corner case that
  Super-linter already handles with its core logic that's in place to
  enable and disable linters.
- Document VALIDATE_JAVASCRIPT_PRETTIER and VALIDATE_TYPESCRIPT_PRETTIER
  because they were missing from the README.
- Add missing TYPESCRIPT_PRETTIER tests.

# Super-linter upgrade guide
This document helps you upgrade from a super-linter version to newer ones:
- [Upgrade from v5 to v6](#upgrade-from-v5-to-v6)
## Upgrade from v5 to v6
This section helps you upgrade from super-linter `v5` to `v6`.
### eslint-config-airbnb-typescript
- eslint-config-airbnb-typescript (a library to add TypeScript support to
Airbnb's ESLint config)
[appears to be unmaintained](https://github.com/iamturns/eslint-config-airbnb-typescript/issues/314).
We had to remove it from super-linter because it was blocking updates to other
dependencies, such as ESLint.
### Checkstyle
- Checkstyle
[embeds some configuration files](https://checkstyle.sourceforge.io/cmdline.html#Command_line_usage),
such as `sun_checks.xml` and `google_checks.xml`. There is no need to provide
your own checkstyle configuration files if it matches one of the embedded
ones. You can safely remove your Checkstyle configuration file if it matches
one of the embedded ones.
### Dart
- super-linter doesn't include a default configuration file for `dart analyzer`
because the Dart SDK doesn't support running `dart analyzer` against an
arbitrary configuration file anymore. For more information about how to
customize static analysis of Dart files, see
[Customizing static analysis](https://dart.dev/tools/analysis) in the Dart SDK
documentation.
### ERROR_ON_MISSING_EXEC_BIT
- `ERROR_ON_MISSING_EXEC_BIT` has been deprecated to align the
`VALIDATE_BASH_EXEC` check to the other linters, removing a surprising corner
case. If `VALIDATE_BASH_EXEC` is set to `true` and a shell script is not
marked as executable, the script will not pass validation. You can remove the
`ERROR_ON_MISSING_EXEC_BIT` variable from your super-linter configuration.
### Experimental batch workers
- Experimental batch support is deprecated. You can safely remove the
`EXPERIMENTAL_BATCH_WORKER` variable from your configuration.
### Gitleaks
- If you defined secret patterns in `.gitleaks.toml`, Gitleaks may report errors
about that file. If this happens, you can
[configure Gitleaks to ignore that file](https://github.com/gitleaks/gitleaks/tree/master?tab=readme-ov-file#gitleaksignore).
### Jscpd
- The `VALIDATE_JSCPD_ALL_CODEBASE` variable is deprecated. Jscpd now lints the
entire workspace instead of linting files one by one. You can safely remove
the `VALIDATE_JSCPD_ALL_CODEBASE` variable from your configuration.
- Jscpd doesn't consider the `FILTER_REGEX_EXCLUDE`, `FILTER_REGEX_INCLUDE`,
`IGNORE_GENERATED_FILES`, `IGNORE_GITIGNORED_FILES` variables. For more
information about how to ignore files with Jscpd, see
[the Jscpd documentation](https://github.com/kucherenko/jscpd/tree/master/packages/jscpd).
### USE_FIND_ALGORITHM and VALIDATE_ALL_CODEBASE used together
- Setting `USE_FIND_ALGORITHM` to `true` and `VALIDATE_ALL_CODEBASE` to `false`
is an unsupported configuration. super-linter `v5` and earlier silently
ignored `VALIDATE_ALL_CODEBASE` when `USE_FIND_ALGORITHM` is set to `true`,
leading to potentially confusing behavior for users. super-linter `v6`
explicitly fail in this case. Remove one of the two from your configuration,
depending on the desired behavior.
### VALIDATE_KOTLIN_ANDROID
- The `VALIDATE_KOTLIN_ANDROID` variable has been deprecated because ktlint
handles linting Kotlin files for Android using a configuration option, so
super-linter doesn't need to account for this special case anymore. If you
set `VALIDATE_KOTLIN_ANDROID` in your configuration, change it to
`VALIDATE_KOTLIN` and configure ktlint to lint Android files.
