      # Checks for redundant uses of `self`.
      #
      # The usage of `self` is only needed when:
      #
      # * Sending a message to same object with zero arguments in
      #   presence of a method name clash with an argument or a local
      #   variable.
      #
      # * Calling an attribute writer to prevent a local variable assignment.
      #
      # Note, with using explicit self you can only send messages with public or
      # protected scope, you cannot send private messages this way.
      #
      # Note we allow uses of `self` with operators because it would be awkward
      # otherwise. Also allows the use of `self.it` without arguments in blocks,
      # as in `0.times { self.it }`, following `Lint/ItWithoutArgumentsInBlock` cop.
      #
      # @example
      #
      #   # bad
      #   def foo(bar)
      #     self.baz
      #   end
      #
      #   # good
      #   def foo(bar)
      #     self.bar  # Resolves name clash with the argument.
      #   end
      #
      #   def foo
      #     bar = 1
      #     self.bar  # Resolves name clash with the local variable.
      #   end
      #
      #   def foo
      #     %w[x y z].select do |bar|
      #       self.bar == bar  # Resolves name clash with argument of the block.
      #     end
      #   end
