DeprecatedShelloutMethods

The department is: DeprecatedShelloutMethods

The full name of the cop is: Chef/Deprecations/DeprecatedShelloutMethods

The large number of shell_out helper methods in Chef Infra Client has been reduced to just shell_out and shell_out! methods. The legacy methods were removed in Chef Infra Client and cookbooks using these legacy helpers will need to be updated.
