      # Checks for redundant safe navigation calls.
      # Use cases where a constant, named in camel case for classes and modules is `nil` are rare,
      # and an offense is not detected when the receiver is a constant. The detection also applies
      # to literal receivers, except for `nil`.
      #
      # For all receivers, the `instance_of?`, `kind_of?`, `is_a?`, `eql?`, `respond_to?`,
      # and `equal?` methods are checked by default.
      # These are customizable with `AllowedMethods` option.
      #
      # The `AllowedMethods` option specifies nil-safe methods,
      # in other words, it is a method that is allowed to skip safe navigation.
      # Note that the `AllowedMethod` option is not an option that specifies methods
      # for which to suppress (allow) this cop's check.
      #
      # In the example below, the safe navigation operator (`&.`) is unnecessary
      # because `NilClass` has methods like `respond_to?` and `is_a?`.
      #
      # @safety
      #   This cop is unsafe, because autocorrection can change the return type of
      #   the expression. An offending expression that previously could return `nil`
      #   will be autocorrected to never return `nil`.
      #
      # @example
      #   # bad
      #   CamelCaseConst&.do_something
      #
      #   # bad
      #   do_something if attrs&.respond_to?(:[])
      #
      #   # good
      #   do_something if attrs.respond_to?(:[])
      #
      #   # bad
      #   while node&.is_a?(BeginNode)
      #     node = node.parent
      #   end
      #
      #   # good
      #   CamelCaseConst.do_something
      #
      #   # good
      #   while node.is_a?(BeginNode)
      #     node = node.parent
      #   end
      #
      #   # good - without `&.` this will always return `true`
      #   foo&.respond_to?(:to_a)
      #
      #   # bad - for `nil`s conversion methods return default values for the type
      #   foo&.to_h || {}
      #   foo&.to_h { |k, v| [k, v] } || {}
      #   foo&.to_a || []
      #   foo&.to_i || 0
      #   foo&.to_f || 0.0
      #   foo&.to_s || ''
      #
      #   # good
