Add `needless_if` lint
first off: Sorry about the large diff. Seems a ton of tests do this (understandably so).
this is basically everything I wanted in #10868, while it doesn't lint *all* unnecessary empty blocks, it lints needless if statements; which are basically the crux of the issue (for me) anyway. I've committed code that includes this far too many times 😅 hopefully clippy can help me out soon
closes#10868
changelog: New lint [`needless_if`]
Add spans to `clippy.toml` error messages
Adds spans to errors and warnings encountered when parsing `clippy.toml`.
changelog: Errors and warnings generated when parsing `clippy.toml` now point to the location in the TOML file the error/warning occurred.
Add configuration for `semicolon_block` lints
Does exactly what it says on the tin, suggests moving a block's final semicolon inside if it's multiline and outside if it's singleline.
I don't really like how this is implemented so I'm not too sure if this is ready yet. Alas, it might be ok.

Add suggestions to `extra_unused_type_parameters`
Change the `extra_unused_type_parameters` lint to provide machine applicable suggestions rather than just help messages. Exception to this are cases when any unused type parameters appear bounded in where clauses - for now I've deemed these cases unfixable and separated them out. Future work might be able to provide suggestions in these cases.
Also, added a test case for the `avoid_breaking_exported_api` config option.
