Checks if the provided value is an object created by the Object constructor.
- Check if the provided value is truthy.
- Use `typeof` to check if it is an object and `Object.prototype.constructor` to make sure the constructor is equal to `Object`.
```js
const isPlainObject = val =>
!!val && typeof val === 'object' && val.constructor === Object;
```
```js
isPlainObject({ a: 1 }); // true
isPlainObject(new Map()); // false
```
