Fix <: and >: without LHS

This patch fixes formatting of <: and >: when used without LHS. This is
again an inconsistency compared to other operators.

+## Inconsistencies
+
+- The `spaces_around_operators` rule have the following inconsistencies.
+
+   - `:`, `^`, and `::` instead fall under `no_spaces_around_colon_etc`:
+     ```julia
+     # current formatting      # "consistent" formatting
+     a:b                       a : b                            ✖
+     a^b                       a ^ b                            ✖
+     a::b                      a :: b                           ✖
+     ```
+
+   - `<:` and `<:` fall under `no_spaces_around_colon_etc` if they have no LHS:
+     ```julia
+     # current formatting      # "consistent" formatting
+     a <: b                    a <: b                           ✔
+     a >: b                    a >: b                           ✔
+     a{c <: b}                 a{c <: b}                        ✔
+     a{c >: b}                 a{c >: b}                        ✔
+     a{<:b}                    a{<: b}                          ✖
+     a{>:b}                    a{>: b}                          ✖
+     ```
