Description

When a @Bind* field is present but not used anywhere except by the generated view binding.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing ButterKnife lint checks in the repository (e.g., custom lint rules under the 'lint' module). Understand how Lint checks are registered and how to detect unused annotations. Then implement a new lint check that flags @Bind* fields that are only used by generated code.
