`README`: document that Clippy may change codegen
Currently, Clippy does not guarantee the same codegen will be produced.
Therefore, it should not be used as an universal replacement for `rustc`.
See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/8035.

Stabilize `cargo clippy --fix`
This has been unstable since it was first introduced in
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/5363. In that time, I have
been using it successfully in nightly without issues. I don't think
there are any blocking issues now that RUSTC_WORKSPACE_WRAPPER is
stabilized, so this can be stabilized.

This most likely no longer works since we are pinning clippy on a specific nightly now.
"cargo run" would try to compile clippy with whatever version the project we want to check demands.
Also building clippy yourself to run it on a project is not really needed anymore since clippy is shipped with official rust releases.
Fixes#6489
Disable and enable when not specifically explained were not clear to me
as an English language speaker, but I was able to figure it out fairly
easily due to the examples having A/W, which I assumed meant `allow` and
`warn`. I removed both words to be sure it was clear as well as
extending the note on what deny means. It now includes a statement on
exactly what each word means.
It looks like after changing to "there are more than 120 lints", an older PR was merged
and resolving merge conflicts this was changed back to "there are 123 lints" causing the update-script to silently fail.
Changed back the README.md back to the new format fixes the problem.
