Unnecessary parentheses in function call with lambda

Reports redundant empty parentheses of function calls where the only parameter is a lambda that's outside the parentheses.

Use the 'Remove unnecessary parentheses from function call with lambda' quick-fix to clean up the code.

Examples:

  fun foo() {
      listOf(1).forEach() {  }
  }

After the quick-fix is applied:

  fun foo() {
      listOf(1).forEach {  }
  }
