### 🚀 New and noteworthy

### 🌟 New and changed rules

#### New Rules

* The new Apex rule {%rule apex/performance/AvoidNonRestrictiveQueries %} finds SOQL and SOSL queries without a where
  or limit statement. This can quickly cause governor limit exceptions.

#### Changed rules
* {%rule apex/codestyle/ClassNamingConventions %}: Two new properties to configure different patterns
  for inner classes and interfaces: `innerClassPattern` and `innerInterfacePattern`.
