no-extraneous-dependencies doesn't support nested package.json

When trying to pass a function to the rule with both eslint 5.16.0 and 6.0.0-alpha I get

	Configuration for rule "import/no-extraneous-dependencies" is invalid:
	Severity should be one of the following: 0 = off, 1 = warn, 2 = error (you passed '[Function: import/no-extraneous-dependencies]').

Expanding on my previous comment, here’s what my ESLint settings look like:

'import/resolver': {
  node: {
    moduleDirectory: [
      'node_modules',
      './src',
    ],
  },
},

Inside src I have 3 main folders: services, components, and scenes (this is for a large React Native app, by the way). Each of those main folders contains a package.json that looks like this (each with their respective names):

{
  "name": "services"
}

Elsewhere in my project I can now import a component (or a service or a scene) by simply typing:

import Button from 'components/Button'

This is much more manageable than typing something like:

import Button from '../../../../../../../../components/Button';

Currently, I get import/no-extraneous-dependencies: 'react' should be listed in the project's dependencies. Run 'npm i -S react' to add it because the minimal package.json doesn’t have dependencies and the rule doesn’t care to look up higher in the directory tree.

If the rule allowed me to do the following, it would solve this issue:

'import/no-extraneous-dependencies': {
  moduleDirectories: ['./'] // or any other configuration that's most convenient for all
},
