      # Checks for uses of the character literal ?x.
      # Starting with Ruby 1.9 character literals are
      # essentially one-character strings, so this syntax
      # is mostly redundant at this point.
      #
      # A `?` character literal can be used to express meta and control characters.
      # That's a good use case of a `?` literal so it doesn't count as an offense.
      #
      # @example
      #   # bad
      #   ?x
      #
      #   # good
      #   'x'
      #
      #   # good - control & meta escapes
      #   ?\C-\M-d
      #   "\C-\M-d" # same as above
