Redundant 'asSequence' call

Reports redundant asSequence() call that can never have a positive performance effect.

asSequence() speeds up collection processing that includes multiple operations because it performs operations lazily and doesn't create intermediate collections.

However, if a terminal operation (such as toList()) is used right after asSequence(), this doesn't give you any positive performance effect.

Example:

  fun test(list: List<String>) {
      list.asSequence().last()
  }

After the quick-fix is applied:

  fun test(list: List<String>) {
      list.last()
  }
