thanks for the PR. However, this package is frozen except for critical bug fixes as ESLint moves to a new config system. I don't think the change qualify.

Let's see what other team members think. @eslint/eslint-team

The name property is added as in v10 the old config format is being removed.
As such there are no compability issues anymore when adding name.
You can keep using v9 if you want to keep using the old config format.

I think the goal of this pull request is to fix the issue with FlatCompat noted in this comment, where eslintrc-style configs fail validation when a name property is added.

FlatCompat is a utility we want to continue supporting beyond the lifetime of eslintrc, even if it's included in this deprecated package, so I think a change here makes sense. The only question is whether the name validation should be relaxed for all configs, as suggested in the original issue, or only for eslint:all and eslint:recommended, which is what this PR currently does. The approach in this PR seems also fine if we don't anticipate new use cases, but I'd like to hear other opinions.
