### What it does

Disallow unused labels.

### Why is this bad?

Labels that are declared and not used anywhere in the code are most likely an error due to incomplete refactoring.

### Examples

Examples of **incorrect** code for this rule:

```javascript
OUTER_LOOP: for (const student of students) {
  if (checkScores(student.scores)) {
    continue;
  }
  doSomething(student);
}
```

Examples of **correct** code for this rule:

```javascript
for (const student of students) {
  if (checkScores(student.scores)) {
    continue;
  }
  doSomething(student);
}
```
