no-callback-in-promise misses callback passed as argument
Description
The no-callback-in-promise rule only checks for CallExpressions. It does not check if a callback is passed to a third-party like setTimeout(callback). I think any time a callback is passed to another function, the assumption should be that the callback will be called.
Steps to Reproduce
function wait (callback) {
return Promise.resolve()
.then(() => {
setTimeout(() => callback()); // this fails
setTimeout(callback); // this does not fail
});
}
Expected behavior: no-callback-in-promise flags error
Actual behavior: no-callback-in-promise rule does not flag error

Additional Information
Potential implementation: in https://github.com/xjamundx/eslint-plugin-promise/blob/5b935bdd3c3760a2e58eea9b89c86b6d3243e321/rules/lib/is-callback.js, you can potentially check if any of the CallExpressions's arguments is a named callback.
Note that as per #220 the particular examples you cite with setTimeout are actually meant to pass. The plug-in could perhaps solve this by config which prevented even callbacks invoked by setTimeout and the like.
