I think, we need to rename it to `performance-inefficient-lookup-algorithm` or `performance-inefficient-search-algorithm`, since we're changing the name anyway.

That is an interesting question whether it is better to have more general check names and make checkers do more stuff or have more specific names and split functionality between more checks. It would be awesome to have a policy on that. A good benchmark whether two checks should be implemented by the same checker is to think about whether there are cases when the user might enable only one of the checks, not both.
