Convert to primary constructor

Reports a secondary constructor that can be replaced with a more concise primary constructor.

Example:

  class User {
      val name: String

      constructor(name: String) {
          this.name = name
      }
  }

The quick-fix converts code automatically:

  class User(val name: String) {
  }
