Description
Today we provide a quick fix in JavaScript files (e.g. .js, .jsx) under // @ts-check and checkJs to suppress errors by adding a
// @ts-ignore
comment.
Now that we have // @ts-expect-error which errors in the presence of no errors, we should probably switch the quick fix over to use that instead.
