The following error occurred
when I created a project with the typecript template of createp-next-app
and did the 'next build'.
```shell
It looks like you're trying to use TypeScript but do not have the required package(s) installed.
Please install @types/node by running:
yarn add --dev @types/node
If you are not trying to use TypeScript, please remove the tsconfig.json file from your package root (and any TypeScript files in your pages directory).
```
This issue was resolved by adding @types/node.
So I added @types/node to the devDependencies of the create-next-app typecript template.
Hello! I was using `npx create-next-app --ts` to quickly bootstrap a basic next.js project with Typescript. It bothered me that I got git diff just from running `npm run build` inside the project, because the new notice in the `next-env.d.ts` file.
So I went ahead and updated the `next-env.d.ts` file in [`packages/create-next-app/templates/typescript`](fb67ce9864/packages/create-next-app/templates/typescript/next-env.d.ts) to be exactly how the file looks after running once. (7417ecc09c)
Then I realized that I could probably do the same for all the `next-env.d.ts` that are spread out in the many examples, to make running those examples after cloning them feel a bit smoother. (fb67ce9864)
> However I skipped the [`with-typescript-graphql`](40f85f6d95/examples/with-typescript-graphql) example since that [`next-env.d.ts`](40f85f6d95/examples/with-typescript-graphql/next-env.d.ts (L4-L9)) actually has changes and I couldn't even run `yarn build` in that example, so I'm not sure what will happen with the `next-env.d.ts`. Someone who _gets_ that example will have to fix it I suppose.
This adds a type annotation for the `NextConfig` type to `next.config.js` in the `create-next-app` typescript template.

This PR introduces an improved developer experience when `next lint` is run for the first time.
### Current behavior
`eslint-config-next` is a required package that must be installed before proceeding with `next lint` or `next build`:
Although this has helped many developers start using the new ESLint config, this has also resulted in a few issues:
- Users are required to install the full config (`eslint-config-next`) even if they do not use it or use the Next.js plugin directly (`eslint-plugin-next`).
- #26348
- There's some confusion on why `eslint-config-next` needs to be installed or how it should be used instead of `eslint-plugin-next`.
- #26574
- #26475
- #26438
### New behavior
Instead of enforcing `eslint-config-next` as a required package, this PR prompts the user by asking what config they would like to start. This happens when `next lint` is run for the first time **and** if no ESLint configuration is detected in the application.

- The CLI will take care of installing `eslint` or `eslint-config-next` if either is not already installed
- Users now have the option to choose between a strict configuration (`next/core-web-vitals`) or just the base configuration (`next`)
- For users that decide to create their own ESLint configuration, or already have an existing one, **installing `eslint-config-next` will not be a requirement for `next lint` or `next build` to run**. A warning message will just show if the Next.js ESLint plugin is not detected in an ESLint config.

In addition, this PR also:
- Fixes#26348
- Updates documentation to make it more clear what approach to take for new and existing ESLint configurations

### Changes
* Corrected the file extension reference from .tsx to .ts for ```packages/create-next-app/templates/typescript/README-template.md```.
This matches the actual file extension and avoids confusion for new users.
Previous TypeScript template in `create-next-app` only had the following in `next-env.d.ts`
```ts
/// <reference types="next" />
/// <reference types="next/types/global" />
```
New `next-env.d.ts` has this:
```ts
/// <reference types="next" />
/// <reference types="next/types/global" />
/// <reference types="next/image-types/global" />
```
Next.js automatically adds the `image-types` reference, but it won't be included in the initial commit.

This Pull Request adds [Alex](https://alexjs.com/) to our documentation. It catches insensitive, inconsiderate writing.
The original PR (https://github.com/vercel/next.js/pull/25821) is too large so I have decided to break it down into smaller PRs. This PR is the first part. Then I will continue to add the rest of the documentation in smaller PRs.

Since #24655 landed in 10.2.1, I wanted to update the documentation, especially for the top Google results for "next typescript", so that users know how to create a TS project.
Please feel free to change anything you feel is appropriate.
