Release plan:

• @eslint/eslintrc v2.1.3
• @eslint/js v8.53.0
• eslint v8.53.0

[mdjermanovic]

I've temporarily removed metascraper (#17707) due to problems with installing re2 on our Jenkins server. We'll probably need to upgrade Python.

ESLint v8.53.0 has been released:

Please merge semver-patch PRs only until we determine whether or not a patch release is necessary.

There were no regressions reported, so this concludes the v8.53.0 release. We can resume merging semver-minor changes.
