chore(deps): update eslint packages (major) (#1840)

* chore(deps): update eslint packages

* Update eslint configuration

- remove plugins which prevent upgrading eslint
- update the configuration based on the one from cucumber-expression
- update a piece of code to make linting happy

Note: some rules have been deactivated to make the update of eslint
possible without breaking our build. Those rules may be deactivated
later as part of dedicated pull requests.

This reverts commit 1bd2f32.
