Suggests using custom finders instead of find in Patrol tests.

Example​

❌ Bad:

void main() {
  patrolTest('widget test', () {
    ...
    find.byType(SomeType); // LINT: Prefer custom finder ($) over 'find'.
    find.text('SomeText'); // LINT: Prefer custom finder ($) over 'find'.
  });
}

✅ Good:

void main() {
  patrolTest('widget test', () {
    ...
    $(SomeType);
    $('SomeText');
  });
}
