Description

This rule would check for:

class X extends Component {
  constructor(props, context) {
    super(props, context);
  }
}

React is lenient, so constructor() { super(); } works, so this is just a stylistic preference.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study existing rules in eslint plugin react, then create a new rule that checks that a React component's constructor has parameters named `props` and `context` and passes them to super().
