selector-no-qualifying-type

Disallow qualifying a selector by type.

    a.foo {}
/** ↑
 * This type selector is qualifying the class */

A type selector is "qualifying" when it is compounded with (chained to) another selector (e.g. a.foo, a#foo). This rule does not regulate type selectors that are combined with other selectors via a combinator (e.g. a > .foo, a #foo).

The message secondary option can accept the arguments of this rule.
