> enforce valid `v-show` directives

- :gear: This rule is included in the following preset configs:
  - `*.configs["flat/essential"]`
  - `*.configs["flat/vue2-essential"]`
  - `*.configs["flat/strongly-recommended"]`
  - `*.configs["flat/vue2-strongly-recommended"]`
  - `*.configs["flat/recommended"]`

  - `"plugin:vue/strongly-recommended"`
  - `"plugin:vue/vue2-strongly-recommended"`
  - `"plugin:vue/recommended"`
  - `"plugin:vue/vue2-recommended"`

This rule checks whether every `v-show` directive is valid.

## :book: Rule Details

This rule reports `v-show` directives in the following cases:

- The directive has that argument. E.g. `<div v-show:aaa></div>`
- The directive has that modifier. E.g. `<div v-show.bbb></div>`
- The directive does not have that attribute value. E.g. `<div v-show></div>`
- The directive is put on `<template>` tag. E.g. `<template v-show="condition" />`

<eslint-code-block :rules="{'vue/valid-v-show': ['error']}">

```vue
<template>
  <!-- ✓ GOOD -->
  <div v-show="foo" />

  <!-- ✗ BAD -->
  <div v-show />
  <div v-show:aaa="foo" />
  <div v-show.bbb="foo" />
  <template v-show="condition" />
</template>
```

</eslint-code-block>

::: warning Note
