Description

Enforce the use of new for all builtins, except String, Number and Boolean.

new Builtin() and Builtin() work the same, but new should be preferred for consistency with other constructors. Enforces the use of new for following builtins:

AggregateError
Array
Date
Error
EvalError
Object
Promise
RangeError
ReferenceError
RegExp
SyntaxError
TypeError
URIError

Disallows the use of new for following builtins:

Boolean
Number
String

These should not use new as that would create object wrappers for the primitive values, which is not what you want. However, without new they can be useful for coercing a value to that type.

Note that, builtins that require new to be instantiated and builtins that require no new to be instantiated (Symbol and BigInt) are covered by the noInvalidBuiltinInstantiation rule.
