Add `Style/RedundantFreeze` to remove redudant `.freeze`

Since Rails 6.0 will support Ruby 2.4.1 or higher
`# frozen_string_literal: true` magic comment is enough to make string object frozen.
This magic comment is enabled by `Style/FrozenStringLiteralComment` cop.

* Exclude these files not to auto correct false positive `Regexp#freeze`
 - 'actionpack/lib/action_dispatch/journey/router/utils.rb'
 - 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/sqlite3_adapter.rb'

It has been fixed by https://github.com/rubocop-hq/rubocop/pull/6333
Once the newer version of RuboCop released and available at Code Climate these exclude entries should be removed.

* Replace `String#freeze` with `String#-@` manually if explicit frozen string objects are required
