SpellFlash is a separate addon that's packaged up and included here. I'm not the developer for it. It explicitly disables itself in versions below 10.0 (because it uses modern API that doesn't match Wrath). I bypassed that restriction by going into Hekili/Libs/SpellFlashCore/SpellFlashCore.lua and changing the 100000 on line 1 to 30000. At that point, it will load but it will also have errors associated with trying to register events that don't exist in Wrath (i.e., PLAYER_SPECIALIZATION_CHANGED). It may sort of work regardless or it might not, but I don't have plans to work on SpellFlashCore myself.
I recommended changes to SpellFlashCore here: Tga123/SpellFlashCore#3
Doesn't look like my pull request to SpellFlashCore is going to be accepted. I will not be able to impact this request.
