no-return-assign could use an except-parens option to match no-cond-assign

[moll]

Hey,

The no-return-assign could use an except-parens option to match no-cond-assign for those cases where returning and assign is convenient.

Thanks!

Thanks for the note. Unfortunately, there's not enough information in this description. Can you please provide:

1. Some sample code you want to lint
2. The configuration of no-return-assign you're using
3. What ESLint currently outputs
4. What you want to happen instead

http://eslint.org/docs/rules/no-cond-assign.html has:

except-parens (default): Disallow assignments unless they are enclosed in parentheses.

I'm proposing no-return-assign do the same.

The following patterns would then not be considered warnings:

function doSomething() {
    return (foo = bar + 2)
}

function doSomething() {
    return (foo += 2)
}

Seems rational to me.

I know this is already accepted, just wanted to show further support for this.

I will try to make this.
