Pull request: Support eslint 8+ flat plugin syntax out of the box for eslint-plugin-react-compiler

## Summary

The current docs for the react compiler eslint plugin is based on integrating with the old-style eslint config format. This is generally fine, but most plugins (and the [official docs](https://eslint.org/docs/latest/use/configure/configuration-files#configuration-file)) are now describing themselves in the new format.

This PR has two changes:

- Update the exports to include a "flat configuration"
- Adds a README change describing how to handle both configs

The solution is semi-based on @guillaumebrunerie's answer in https://github.com/reactwg/react-compiler/discussions/25 mixed with reading the source code for [eslint-plugin-react-refresh](https://github.com/ArnaudBarre/eslint-plugin-react-refresh/blob/main/src/index.ts)

## How did you test this change?

I faked this API in the most recent deploy:

Then used that in my app:

and get myself some compiler messages:

```

+
+Edit your eslint 8+ config (for example `eslint.config.mjs`) with the recommended configuration:
+
+```diff
++ import reactCompiler from "eslint-plugin-react-compiler"
+import react from "eslint-plugin-react"
+
+export default [
+    // Your existing config
+    { ...pluginReact.configs.flat.recommended, settings: { react: { version: "detect" } } },
++   reactCompiler.config.recommended    
+]
+```
+
+### Legacy config (`.eslintrc`)
+
+Add `react-compiler` to the plugins section of your configuration file. You can omit the `eslint-plugin-` prefix:
 
 ```json
