feat!: validate configuration when using find (#5045)
- Fail if the configuration contains USE_FIND_ALGORITHM=true and
  VALIDATE_ALL_CODEBASE=false because this is an unsupported
  configuration. Before this change, super-linter silently ignored
  VALIDATE_ALL_CODEBASE, leading to potentially surprising behavior.

# 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 migrate from super-linter `v5` to `v6`.
### 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).
- Gitleaks 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 Gitleaks, see
[the Gitleaks documentation](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).
### textlint
- textlint 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 textlint, see
[the textlint documentation](https://textlint.github.io/docs/ignore.html).
### 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.
