linter: `--init` option ignores other CLI options (like `--react-plugin`) and doesn't populate `rules`

[astrochemx]

What version of Oxlint are you using?

1.49.0

What command did you run?

oxlint --init --import-plugin --jest-plugin --jsdoc-plugin --jsx-a11y-plugin --nextjs-plugin --node-plugin --promise-plugin --react-perf-plugin --react-plugin --vitest-plugin --vue-plugin --tsconfig=./tsconfig.json

What does your .oxlintrc.json (or oxlint.config.ts) config file look like?

{
  "$schema": "./node_modules/oxlint/configuration_schema.json",
  "plugins": null,
  "categories": {},
  "rules": {},
  "settings": {
    "jsx-a11y": {
      "polymorphicPropName": null,
      "components": {},
      "attributes": {}
    },
    "next": {
      "rootDir": []
    },
    "react": {
      "formComponents": [],
      "linkComponents": [],
      "version": null,
      "componentWrapperFunctions": []
    },
    "jsdoc": {
      "ignorePrivate": false,
      "ignoreInternal": false,
      "ignoreReplacesDocs": true,
      "overrideReplacesDocs": true,
      "augmentsExtendsReplacesDocs": false,
      "implementsReplacesDocs": false,
      "exemptDestructuredRootsFromChecks": false,
      "tagNamePreference": {}
    },
    "vitest": {
      "typecheck": false
    }
  },
  "env": {
    "builtin": true
  },
  "globals": {},
  "ignorePatterns": []
}

What happened?

Starting from the oxlint version 1.42.0, specifically commit 119f566 (refactor(oxlint): move `--init` logic into a own file (#18505)), --init option no longer respects the other CLI options for enabling plugins (like --react-plugin).

Also, the --init option no longer populates the rules object in the configuration with the rules (including from the plugins), which are enabled by default.

Is such behavior expected and intentional? Thanks!

I didn't know that was even supported tbh, if it worked before 1.43 I don't think it was an intentional removal.

I do think the init system needs a bit of a rework in terms of what it creates for an initial config, creating a config with all the settings options - like it does now - is goofy.
