Bug: [new config system] Files outside cwd were not found

[mdjermanovic]

Environment

Node version: v16.14.0
npm version: v8.3.1
Local ESLint version: main branch
Global ESLint version: Not found
Operating System: win32 10.0.19044

What parser are you using?

Default (Espree)

What did you do?

my-app/
├── a.js
├── eslint.config.js
└── foo/

// eslint.config.js
module.exports = [];

Command:

cd foo && eslint "../*.js" -f tap

What did you expect to happen?

TAP version 13
1..2
ok 1 - D:\tmp\my-app\a.js
ok 2 - D:\tmp\my-app\eslint.config.js

This was the actual result before #16369. This is also the actual result when eslintrc config is used.

What actually happened?

Oops! Something went wrong! :(

ESLint: 8.25.0

No files matching the pattern "../*.js" were found.
Please check for typing mistakes in the pattern.
