`npm run lint` fails for new project created with `npm create convex` and default options

[adamjcooper]

Thanks for Convex! Here's a small bit of DX friction you might want to know about for new customers:

After creating a new project with npm create convex with the default (first) options of React (Vite) and Convex Auth, the npm run lint script fails due to a parsing/configuration error:

./convex/auth.config.ts
  0:0  error  Parsing error: "parserOptions.project" has been provided for @typescript-eslint/parser.
The file was not found in any of the provided project(s): convex/auth.config.ts

✖ 1 problem (1 error, 0 warnings)

Other combinations of client and auth do not seem to have this problem.
