Prefer Date.now() to get the number of milliseconds since the Unix Epoch

Date.now() is shorter and nicer than new Date().getTime(), and avoids unnecessary instantiation of Date objects.

This rule is fixable.

Fail

const foo = new Date().getTime();
const foo = new Date().valueOf();
const foo = +new Date;
const foo = Number(new Date());
const foo = new Date() * 2;

Pass

const foo = Date.now();
const foo = Date.now() * 2;
