report: hidden group backcompat

If the user happens to be using a config with no audits in group "hidden", but they're on v9, this shouldn't affect anything.

This is a lie. Sufficient changes to the config could break the expectation. I think the safest approach is to switch to a version check, and merge alongside the v9 bump.

are you making a change here?

are you making a change here?

Since the solution is to look for an LHR with version >=9.0.0 I don't think we can merge this until the version bump. I was planning on making this a part of the version bump PR if possible.

gotcha! yeah totally makes sense.

i think you could use bump-versions.js here and just bump to 8.7.0 so this can land. we wouldn't release 8.7.0 but it'd unblock this dealio.

pretty weird, wish I had an alternative idea. At least, how about 9.0.0-alpha.0?

[paulirish]

this is fine. i considered it but got scared. but sure.
