> Disallow enums that have both number and string members

An enum's number members and string members behave differently. A number member gets a reverse mapping, so `Status[0]` is `"Active"`, and `Object.values(Status)` holds the names along with the numbers. A string member gets neither. In an enum with both, code that loops over the members or looks one up by value has to handle two shapes.

The first member decides the kind. The first member of the other kind is reported. An enum that's declared in several parts counts as one.

{/* Generated by src/codegen/lint-rule-docs.ts. Do not edit this section. */}

## Configure

Off by default. This rule needs types, so turning it on makes `bun lint` type check your code first.

```toml bunfig.toml
[lint.rules]
"@typescript-eslint/no-mixed-enums" = "error" # or "warn"
```

{/* End of the generated section. */}

## Examples

Reported:

{/* bad */}
```ts
enum Status {
  Active,
  Archived = "archived",
}
```

Not reported:

{/* good */}
```ts
enum Status {
  Active = "active",
  Archived = "archived",
}

enum Priority {
  Low,
  High,
}
```

The second part of this enum doesn't match the first:

{/* bad */}
```ts
enum Color {
  Red = "red",
}

enum Color {
  Green = 1,
}
```
