Rule to prevent using xpath

[wlsf82]

A mentee of mine (@RenanDezotti) asked in my mentorship Slack group if it would be possible to create a rule using eslint-plugin-cypress to prevent users from using xpath selectors with Cypress.

I told him this wasn't possible but would be a great addition to the plugin.

So here's the idea.

I hope someone can pick it up and implement it.

I agree with this sentiment. There are a lot more people than you think using xpath.
