Flag "lets verb" and "let verb"

Following #426

I create a separate issue because while we agreed about "let's us" and all pronouns variations.

Something else emerged.

• "lets play" this one is a typo, but we cannot say it's a double pronoun.

• "let play" here the pronoun is missing

I think it should be distinct rules, because the way to report them is different

I wouldn't classify the first as necessarily a typo, which means your fingers didn't do what your brain was thinking, since may people don't have a clear idea of why one has the apostrophe and the other doesn't. Sometimes it's a typo and sometimes it's not.

The second can be the product of two mistakes, omitting the verb or omitting the 's.

I haven't really looked into the linting engine yet but I wouldn't be surprised if things we think of as one mistake need several rules anyway. I might be wrong about that though.

My point was more to say the existing discussion around "let's pronoun" happened, and a PR is here.

Let's talk about other issues with "let"

I didn't want to bring confusion.

I was just thinking about wording as it might end up in lint description fields sorry.

It turns out that we need more context the vast majority of the time, because most verbs which come after "let" or "lets" out in the wild also have noun senses and a noun after a verb, which "let" and "lets" are, is grammatical.

Minimal contrived examples for "play" are:

• Let play continue!
• The umpire lets play continue.

I'm investigating the proper way to check for the end of the chunk/clause/sentence in a PatternLinter
