Docs: Reflect.getOwnPropertyNames does not exist

See original GitHub issue

In the documentation and source code for the prefer-reflect rule, the user is instructed to use Reflect.getOwnPropertyNames in place of Object.getOwnPropertyNames. However, Reflect.getOwnPropertyNames doesn’t actually exist. The closest corresponding Reflect method is Reflect.ownKeys, although this isn’t quite the same because it also includes Symbol properties.

I’m closing this because the team has decided to deprecate the prefer-reflect rule (see discussion here: #7226). @dwhieb Thanks for creating the issue and being willing to do the work!
