[require-description] checkConstructors not working when contexts sets to [MethodDefinition]

[OpportunityLiu]

For example:

/**
 *
 */
class Foo {
    /**
     *
     */
    constructor() {}

    /**
     *
     */
    bar() {}
}

I need to add [ClassDeclaration] to context for the doc of class, but with contexts: [ClassDeclaration], both constructor & bar have no Missing JSDoc block description. warning. When I add [MethodDefinition] to contexts, or set contexts: [any], both constructor & bar have Missing JSDoc block description. warning, even if checkConstructors: false is set.

The checkConstructors option does not exist on require-jsdoc.

You can get the behavior, however, as follows (and I've added this as a test case / docs, for future reference) (the contexts are esquery expressions, and you can consult the esquery docs and the likes of https://astexplorer.net/ to discover AST details for building expressions for your desired syntax):

        {
          contexts: [
            'MethodDefinition[key.name!="constructor"]',
          ],
          require: {
            ClassDeclaration: true,
          },
        }

Closing as that should address, but feel free to comment further.

I means require-description, not require-jsdoc

The checkConstructors option exists, otherwise eslint will failed to parse .eslintrc before it can actually analysis files.
