Add a cop to detect usages of Timecop.freeze

Alishan Ladhani requested to merge ali/add-rubocop-rule-for-timecop into master

What does this MR do?

Add a new rubocop rule to encourage usage of freeze_time instead of Timecop.freeze. This rule is disabled for now. In a follow-up MR, we can run the autocorrection, and then enable the rule.

The plan is to also extend this cop to detect Timecop.travel after completing the above steps.
