Linter rule to enforce empty slice declaration/initialization style

[denisvmedia]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Styles:

1. slice := make([]type)
2. slice := []type{}

There is also a way of having a non-initialized slice (which should be preferred over the empty slice w/o len and cap in most cases), but this is beyond the scope of this linter

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like to introduce a new linter that will enforce a particular style of these 3 to be used.

Things to take into account:

• slices with elements (i.e. []type{el1, el2, elN}) - they should be ignored by the linter.
• slices with explicit len and (optionally) capacity: i.e. make([]type, len), make([]type, len, cap) - they should be ignored by the linter.

Describe alternatives you've considered I wasn't able to find any working alternative.

Additional context This can be considered as a follow up feature for #892.
