Issue Description

When skipLibCheck isn't enabled, we produce a type error for users because rules.d.ts imports from src/util.

> tsc

node_modules/@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin/rules.d.ts:40:63 - error TS2307: Cannot find module './src/util' or its corresponding type declarations.

40 import type { ESLintPluginDocs, ESLintPluginRuleModule } from './src/util';
                                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~


Found 1 error in node_modules/@typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin/rules.d.ts:40

Note that you need to have the @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin package imported from (directly or transitively) in your code, so TypeScript knows to type check it. This tripped me up a bit at first. 😄
