`eslint-` comments cause `lines-around-comment` rule to error

1. The version of ESLint you are using

   1.8.0

2. What you did (the source code and ESLint configuration)

   /* eslint-disable no-underscore-dangle */
   this._values = values;
   this._values2 = true;
   /* eslint-enable no-underscore-dangle */
   

   with the following configuration:

   "lines-around-comment": [2, {
     "allowArrayStart": true,
     "allowBlockStart": true,
     "allowObjectStart": true,
     "beforeBlockComment": true,
     "beforeLineComment": true
   }],
   

3. The actual ESLint output complete with numbers

   error Expected line before comment lines-around-comment

4. What you expected to happen instead

   No error. I don’t think lines-around-comment should be enforced for eslint-enable/eslint-disable type comments. This follows with the fact that no-inline-comments ignores eslint-disable-line comments even when it’s enabled.

Per TSC meeting, we decided that globally excluding comments has too many problems and we shouldn’t proceed down that path. We do think it’s useful to be able to exclude configuration comments from lines-around-comments, and have decided on adding an ignorePattern option to the rule that behaves the same as in https://github.com/eslint/eslint/issues/6077.
