Issue:
Add `regexp/prefer-result-array-groups` rule
From [this comment](https://github.com/ota-meshi/eslint-plugin-regexp/pull/339#discussion_r719249323).

> `prefer-regexp-result-array-groups` is a rule that inherits some named capturing group checks from `no-unused-capturing-group`. 
> This rule prefers named access over array index access when using named capturing group in regex. Perhaps the process is similar to `prefer-named-replacement`.
> When adding `prefer-regexp-result-array-groups`, exclude the same check from `no-unused-capturing-group`.
> 
> The example code that `prefer-regexp-result-array-groups` warns is:
> 
> ```js
> const reFoo = /(?<foo>foo)/
> let resArr
> while (resArr = reFoo.exec(str)) {
>   const foo = resArr[1]
>   //                ^^^ Use `resArr.groups.foo` instead.
>   //                Currently it is warned by no-unused-capturing-group, but change it to not warn.
> }
> ```
> 
> The sample code that the new rule does not warn is:
> 
> ```js
> const reFoo = /(?<foo>foo)/
> let resArr
> while (resArr = reFoo.exec(str)) {
>   const foo = resArr.groups.foo // correct
> }
> ```
> 
> ```js
> const reFoo = /(foo)/
> let resArr
> while (resArr = reFoo.exec(str)) {
>   const foo = resArr[1] // Not using named capturing group in regex.
> }
> ```
> 
> ```js
> const reFoo = /(foo)/
> let resArr
> while (resArr = reFoo.exec(str)) {
>   const match = resArr[0] // The capturing group was not used. It's warned by no-unused-capturing-group rule.
> }
> ```
> 
> The `prefer-regexp-result-array-groups` rule checks not only the `exec` but also the return values of `match` and `matchAll`.

+- :wrench: The `--fix` option on the [command line](https://eslint.org/docs/user-guide/command-line-interface#fixing-problems) can automatically fix some of the problems reported by this rule.
+
+## :book: Rule Details
+
+This rule reports and fixes regexp result arrays where named capturing groups are accessed by index instead of using [`groups`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions/Groups_and_Ranges#using_named_groups).
+
+<eslint-code-block fix>
+
+```js
+/* eslint regexp/prefer-result-array-groups: "error" */
+
+const regex = /(?<foo>a)(b)c/g
+let match
+while (match = regex.exec(str)) {
+    /* ✓ GOOD */
+    var p1 = match.groups.foo
+    var p2 = match[2]
+
+    /* ✗ BAD */
+    var p1 = match[1]
+}
+```
+
+</eslint-code-block>
+
+## :wrench: Options
+
+```json
+{
+  "regexp/prefer-result-array-groups": ["error", {
+    "strictTypes": true
+  }]
+}
+```
+
+- `strictTypes` ... If `true`, strictly check the type of object to determine if the string instance was used in `match()` and `matchAll()`. Default is `true`.  
+  This option is always on when using TypeScript.
