Disallow labels that share a name with a variable

const x1 = "test";
x1: expr;
code-block.js:2:1 lint/suspicious/noLabelVar ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Do not use the x1 variable name as a label

1 │ const x1 = “test”;
> 2 │ x1: expr;
^^
3 │

The variable is declared here

> 1 │ const x1 = “test”;
^^
2 │ x1: expr;
3 │

Creating a label with the same name as an in-scope variable leads to confusion.

const x = "test";
z: expr;
