PreferInlinedAddsRule class

Prefer inline collection literal over empty literal followed by add/addAll.

Flags a local variable initialized with an empty list/set literal and immediately followed by one or more .add() or .addAll() calls on the same variable with no other use in between. Only applies to consecutive statements in the same block (conditional or loop adds are not inlined).

Bad: final items = <String>[]; then items.add('a'); items.add('b'); Good: final items = <String>['a', 'b'];
