How to ignore `avoid-unused-ignores`?

[elliette]

Environment and configuration

DCM version: 1.3.1
Dart SDK version: 3.0.0-290.3.beta

We are getting a bunch of warnings for `avoid-unused-ignores`, despite the fact that the rule is not enabled in our DCM config, and the warning itself doesn't link to an actual rule. Is there a way to disable `avoid-unused-ignores`?

WARNING   This ignore does not suppress any diagnostic. Consider removing it.

@elliette the "avoid-unused-ignores" means you have an ignore that does not have any effect. Instead of ignoring the warning, can you just remove the ignore comment (or a rule id, if there are several ignores)?

[incendial]

It's not a rule per se and feels like removing the ignore is a better way fixing this than ignoring an unused ignore. That's why it does not support ignores.
