Perl::Critic::Policy::TooMuchCode::ProhibitUnnecessaryScalarKeyword3pm

Finds `scalar` in scalar context.

Overview

This policy dictates that the use of `scalar` for in statement like this needs to be removed:

    my $n = scalar @items;

If the left-hand side of assignment is a single scalar variable, then the assignment is in scalar context. There is no need to add "scalar" keyword.
