Pattern: Use of @implements on non-constructor function

Issue: -

Description

Reports an issue with any non-constructor function using @implements.

Constructor functions, whether marked with @class, @constructs, or being an ES6 class constructor, will not be flagged.

To indicate that a function follows another function's signature, one might instead use @type to indicate the @function or @callback to which the funciton is adhering.

Options

contexts

Set this to an array of strings representing the AST context where you wish the rule to be applied. Overrides the default contexts (see below). Set to "any" if you want the rule to apply to any jsdoc block throughout your files (as is necessary for finding function blocks not attached to a function declaration or expression, i.e., @callback or @function (or its aliases @func or @method) (including those associated with an @interface).

Context ArrowFunctionExpression, FunctionDeclaration, FunctionExpression; others when contexts option enabled

The following patterns are considered problems:

/**
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 */
function quux () {

}
// Message: @implements used on a non-constructor function

/**
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 */
function quux () {

}
// Options: [{"contexts":["any"]}]
// Message: @implements used on a non-constructor function

/**
 * @function
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 */
function quux () {

}
// Options: [{"contexts":["any"]}]
// Message: @implements used on a non-constructor function

/**
 * @callback
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 */
// Options: [{"contexts":["any"]}]
// Message: @implements used on a non-constructor function

/**
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 */
function quux () {

}
// Settings: {"jsdoc":{"tagNamePreference":{"implements":false}}}
// Message: Unexpected tag `@implements`

The following patterns are not considered problems:

/**
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 * @class
 */
function quux () {

}

/**
 * @implements {SomeClass}
 * @class
 */
function quux () {

}
// Options: [{"contexts":["any"]}]

/**

   */
  constructor () {

  }
}

/**
