Block used instead of method reference

Reports blocks that can be replaced with method references.

In some situations, the substitution may be semantically different. It is recommended to check the code behavior after applying this inspection.

Use the Ignore &method(…) references checkbox to ignore static method replacements.

Inspired by 'Ruby Style Guide'
