This PR fixes the following incorrect autocorrect for
Lint/RedundantTypeConversionwhen using parentheses with no arguments or any arguments.Case 1: Parentheses with no arguments
First, this applies to parentheses with no arguments.
It is currently autocorrected to an invalid syntax with unnecessary parentheses. Since this case is syntactically valid, it will be updated to the correct form
{k => v}without parentheses.Case 2: Parentheses with arguments
Next, the case with arguments.
This case also results in an incorrect autocorrection. However, when arguments are present, the method should be assumed to be either overridden or still under programming, and thus ignored. In any case, it cannot be considered safely removable or redundant.
