      # Checks for `OpenStruct.new` calls.
      # Instantiation of an `OpenStruct` invalidates
      # Ruby global method cache as it causes dynamic method
      # definition during program runtime.
      # This could have an effect on performance,
      # especially in case of single-threaded
      # applications with multiple `OpenStruct` instantiations.
      #
      # @safety
      #   This cop is unsafe because `OpenStruct.new` and `Struct.new`
      #   are not equivalent.
      #
      # @example
      #   # bad
      #   class MyClass
      #     def my_method
      #       OpenStruct.new(my_key1: 'my_value1', my_key2: 'my_value2')
      #     end
      #   end
      #
      #   # good
      #   class MyClass
      #     MyStruct = Struct.new(:my_key1, :my_key2)
      #     def my_method
      #       MyStruct.new('my_value1', 'my_value2')
      #     end
