Code inspection: Redundant 'scoped' parameter modifier

This inspection reports a scoped parameter modifier when it does not affect escape analysis or overload resolution in that context. In that case, the modifier is unnecessary and only adds noise.

                ref struct R { }
                class C
                {
                    static void M(scoped R value)
                    {
                    }
                }
            

                ref struct R { }
                class C
                {
                    static void M(R value)
                    {
                    }
                }
            

This often appears in pattern variables, deconstruction variables, delegate conversions, and overrides where scoped does not change the actual contract.
