LintFix config option disappeared in v6?! (ng generate produces invalid code!)

[tx8821]

Using Angular CLI v6.0.5. New Project

In pre-v6 projects, in ".angular-cli.json" under "defaults" section we had "lintFix": true setting, which ensured that after generating new component/service/whatever the linting fixes where performed automatically. Now in new "angular.json" (which replaces ".angular-cli.json") I can't find similar option. Which is a HUGE problem!

Suppose I have changed linter defaults to prefer "double quotes" for string (whoever said 'single quotes' should be default for TypeScript needs to be fired IMHO). Now every time I generate new component with ng g component MyNewComponent, it is created with all 'single quote' strings inside, instead of "double quotes"! And I have to manually fix them every time which is a nightmare! lintFix setting solved that in previous CLI versions but now, what is an alternative?!

I would also like to see this feature back in the CLI. At the moment I have to manually fix all generated files, as I am using a few different configurations then the default.

It really needs to be fixed!

I think this is a dupe of #10013 but until investigation I'm not going to close this issue.

I don't think this is a duplicate of #10013 - this issue is about no longer being able to set the lintFix option at all since 6.0. 10013 is about tslint type checking not working correctly in 1.7.3 with the lintFix option working correctly.

I just noticed, that the lintFix option isn't even mentioned in the Angular CLI 1.7.x wiki, but it is part of the Angular CLI 1.7.x schema file.

Also, in the new configuration, there is a fix option in the tslint-configuration, but it does not seem to be used for the ng generate commands.
