This PR is a follow up to #1432, again trying to enable Rubocop in CI and autocorrect what we can, whilst keeping the gem actually working 😅 ❤️

I decided to start again with a fresh PR because the original PR had a very ugly history - lots of embarrassing fiddling around getting the right TargetRubyVersion for Rubocop! - and I didn't want to destroy it as there were some useful comments in there.

It's worth noting that, to support linting compatible with Ruby 2.3 (which is the current version we actually support, despite what the gemspec claims!), we have to downgrade Rubocop to an earlier version.

Theoretically, Rubocop autocorrection shouldn't lead to any substantive changes in the meaning of your code, but it can make mistakes from time to time. I have a high level of confidence though that we're safe: the tests pass, and I have manually read through the changes to check for anything evident (although this is obviously challenging given the length of the diff).

ERB in Ruby 2.3 doesn't seem to be frozen string literal
compatible - at least under certain cases. I observed a number
of test failures in GitHub Actions when working with templates,
generating an error like this:

```
(erb):1:in `concat': can't modify frozen String (RuntimeError)
```

You can see an example [here][1].

It seems prudent just to ignore this since (a) people are unlikely
to use Ruby 2.3, (b) we are set to drop support for it and (c)
it's even more unlikely that people use Ruby 2.3 *and* frozen
string literals.
