enabled_rules option in .swiftlint.yml?

[daniel-beard]

• It would be helpful to have an enabled_rules option in the .swiftlint.yml config file that works as a whitelist.
• I'm using swiftlint as part of a CI process, so by using the disabled_rules option, each time I upgrade the swift lint binary, and there have been new rules added, I have to disable more rules (otherwise swiftlint will generate warnings / errors for rules I don't necessarily want).

Thanks for the suggestion!

I think we should add both an enabled_rules and a rules

• enabled_rules would opt into rules that are disabled by default
• rules would be a final list of all rules to be used, and specifying a value for this would ignore enabled_rules and disabled_rules

@jpsim I think it starts to get complicated if we allow blacks lists, black lists with opt in, and white lists. Why not just got with the "either black list or white list" approach, similar to included and excluded?

You're right @scottrhoyt. Re-reading my comment I don't recall why I though that would be a good idea.
