New rule request
Please describe the rule idea, format
this issue's title as Rule Request: [Rule Name] and describe:
Well I Don't know if this is possible, but a rule that enforces to use the shortest version of an enum, color etc.
// Trigger
UIBarButtonItem(barButtonSystemItem: UIBarButtonItem.SystemItem.add, target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.buttonTouched))
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.green
// Non-trigger
UIBarButtonItem(barButtonSystemItem: .add, target: self, action: #selector(ViewController.buttonTouched))
view.backgroundColor = .green
The rule should be opt-in

Research direction
Review SwiftLint's existing rule implementations and configuration patterns to determine how an opt-in rule would fit. Use the provided qualified and shorthand enum examples as the initial behavior to cover, and define completion as detecting the longer form without flagging the shorthand form.
