`cargo test` (as opposed to `cargo uitest`) will also ensure that our lint
implementation is not violating any Clippy lints itself.
If you are still following the example, you will see that `FooFunctionsPass`
violates a Clippy lint. So we are going to rename that struct to just `Pass`:
```rust
#[derive(Copy, Clone)]
pub struct Pass;
impl LintPass for Pass { /* .. */ }
```
That should be it for the lint implementation. Running `cargo test` should now
pass.
