Restrict very common bi pattern #8

Description

@NicolasPA

I noticed today that Pycharm/English/Style/Insentive Writing/LGBTQ, which uses this reference https://github.com/errata-ai/alex/blob/master/alex/LGBTQ.yml, recommended to replace the bi in my text bi_xyz with bisexual.

Consider using 'bisexual' instead of 'bi'. (by 'alex' style guide)

It has nothing to do with bisexuality. It's BI for for Business Intelligence, a very used acronym in the business and data world, and Pycharm is quite present there too, so many users may get this irrelevant recommendation. It will often appear in lower snakecase in SQL names, like databases, tables and column names.

It could be useful to restrict the pattern to be surrounded by white-spaces " bi ".
Or maybe remove it because it is not that problematic?
In the meantime I have to disable the rule to avoid warning pollution.
