Closes #8622 When the old @better-auth/cli detects that better-auth >= 1.5.0 is installed, it now prints a warning directing users to the new `auth` CLI (`npx auth@latest`). This prevents unexpected behavior from the old CLI generating incorrect schemas for v1.5.x projects. Uses `createRequire` from the user's CWD to resolve better-auth's package.json and `semver.gte` for version comparison. Uses `chalk` for terminal colors (consistent with the rest of the CLI). Silently skips the check if better-auth is not installed.

About the Project
Better Auth is framework-agnostic authentication (and authorization) library for TypeScript. It provides a comprehensive set of features out of the box and includes a plugin ecosystem that simplifies adding advanced functionalities with minimal code in short amount of time. Whether you need 2FA, multi-tenant support, or other complex features. It lets you focus on building your actual application instead of reinventing the wheel.
Why Better Auth
Authentication in the TypeScript ecosystem is a half-solved problem. Other open-source libraries often require a lot of additional code for anything beyond basic authentication. Rather than just pushing third-party services as the solution, I believe we can do better as a community—hence, Better Auth.
