False-Positive in Lint/DuplicateMethods for dynamic classes

[code-later]

I just updated from 0.35.1 to 0.36.0 and received an error for Lint/DuplicateMethods in a code similar to this:

class Human
  def initialize(attribute = {})
    @attributes = attributes
  end

  def spawn_robot(type)
    type = Class.new do
      def initialize(attributes = {})
        @attributes = attributes
      end
    end
  end
end

Running rubocop on this file will give the following error:

sandbox/rubocop_test.rb:8:7: W: Lint/DuplicateMethods: Method Human#initialize is defined at both /srv/nfs/fejo-dk/fejo-next/sandbox/rubocop_test.rb:2 and /srv/nfs/fejo-dk/fejo-next/sandbox/rubocop_test.rb:8.
      def initialize(attributes = {})
      ^^^

I think this was introduced by the improvements in 1f9c639. I'm well aware that we can argue about the code itself but I don't think this should be a Lint/DuplicateMethods violation since they are both valid.

I'm not sure how to fix this thus I'm just reporting ;-)

This was fixed on master.

My bad - I was thinking of a similar problem #2707

This is fixed in my open PR.

Confirmed. The fix was released in 0.37.1.
