      Avoid piping into anonymous functions.

      The code in this example ...

          def my_fun(foo) do
            foo
            |> (fn i -> i * 2 end).()
            |> my_other_fun()
          end

      ... should be refactored to define a private function:

          def my_fun(foo) do
            foo
            |> times_2()
            |> my_other_fun()
          end

          defp timex_2(i), do: i * 2

      Like all `Readability` issues, this one is not a technical concern.
      But you can improve the odds of others reading and liking your code by making
      it easier to follow.
