- Simplify `assert_buffer_eq!` logic.
- Deprecate `assert_buffer_eq!`.
- Introduce `TestBackend::assert_buffer_lines`.
Also simplify many tests involving buffer comparisons.
For the deprecation, just use `assert_eq` instead of `assert_buffer_eq`:
```diff
-assert_buffer_eq!(actual, expected);
+assert_eq!(actual, expected);
```
---
I noticed `assert_buffer_eq!` creating no test coverage reports and
looked into this macro. First I simplified it. Then I noticed a bunch of
`assert_eq!(buffer, …)` and other indirect usages of this macro (like
`TestBackend::assert_buffer`).
The good thing here is that it's mainly used in tests so not many
changes to the library code.
Fixes many not yet enabled lints (mostly pedantic) on everything that is
not the lib (examples, benchs, tests). Therefore, this is not containing
anything that can be a breaking change.
Lints are not enabled as that should be the job of #974. I created this
as a separate PR as its mostly independent and would only clutter up the
diff of #974 even more.

Many widgets can be rendered without changing their state.
This commit implements The `Widget` trait for references to
widgets and changes their implementations to be immutable.
This allows us to render widgets without consuming them by passing a ref
to the widget when calling `Frame::render_widget()`.
```rust
// this might be stored in a struct
let paragraph = Paragraph::new("Hello world!");
let [left, right] = area.split(&Layout::horizontal([20, 20]));
frame.render_widget(¶graph, left);
frame.render_widget(¶graph, right); // we can reuse the widget
```
Implemented for all widgets except BarChart (which has an implementation
that modifies the internal state and requires a rewrite to fix.
Other widgets will be implemented in follow up commits.
