Description
On default ESLint is not working for files with the extension js.
To get it working, i have to modify the plugin.xml of org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core to change its file extension from js to js_
In addition i need to patch org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.internal.core.util.Util.getJavaLikeExtensions().
I wonder why others have no problems like this.

Research direction
Start by investigating how default ESLint handles .js files, then inspect the plugin.xml for org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.core and Java org.eclipse.wst.jsdt.internal.core.util.Util.getJavaLikeExtensions(). Compare the current behavior with the reported workaround. Done means JavaScript files with the .js extension work with default ESLint without either manual patch.
