Disallow Inferred Method Names in Object Literals (no-inferred-method-name)

In ES6, compact methods and unnamed function expression assignments within object literals do not create a lexical identification (name) binding that corresponds to the function name identifier for recursion or event binding. The compact method syntax will not be an appropriate option for these types of solutions, and a named function expression should be used instead. This custom ESLint rule will identify instances where a function name is being called and a lexical identifier is unavailable within a compact object literal.

Note - Tests are provided in the repo, but not necessary for installation or use of the rule.
