Disallow unnecessary nested block statements.

In JavaScript, prior to ES6, standalone code blocks delimited by curly braces do not create a new scope and have no use. In ES6, code blocks may create a new scope if a block-level binding (let and const), a class declaration or a function declaration (in strict mode) are present. A block is not considered redundant in these cases.
