New lint: redundant_slicing
changelog: Added lint: `redundant_slicing`
fixes#6519
This will trigger on any type which implements `Index<RangeFull>` that returns the input type. This would be a false positive if the implementation does something other than return itself, but I'm not sure why you would ever want to do that.
Fix the ICE 6539
Fixes#6539
It happened because `zero_sized_map_values` used `layout_of` with types from type aliases, which is essentially the same as the ICE 4968.

changelog: Fix an ICE in `zero_sized_map_values`
Fix FP with empty return for `needless_return` lint
This fixes a false positive in `needless_return` lint, when triggered in a closure using `return` statement without value.
Fixes: #6501
changelog: none
Case sensitive file extensions
Closes#6425
Looks for ends_with methods calls with case sensitive extension comparisons.
changelog: Add new lint that warns about case-sensitive file extension comparisons.
Rework diagnostics for wrong number of generic args (fixes#66228 and #71924)
This PR reworks the `wrong number of {} arguments` message, so that it provides more details and contextual hints.
This makes it possible to pass the `Impl` directly to functions, instead
of having to pass each of the many fields one at a time. It also
simplifies matches in many cases.
Roadmap for 2021
[Rendered](https://github.com/flip1995/rust-clippy/blob/roadmap/doc/roadmap-2021.md)
This is the first time Clippy gets its own roadmap. The reason for this roadmap is, that with the Rust language growing, also Clippy is growing. With this keeping track of and implementing bigger projects gets quite hard. This roadmap should help in exactly this regard.
After having the approval of this roadmap by the Clippy team, we want to know from the community:
- What do you think in general about this roadmap?
- Are there any pain points in Clippy, that should be included here?
- What of the points listed here has the highest priority for you?
We're looking forward to getting your feedback!
changelog: Add roadmap for Clippy 2021

Catch `pointer::cast` too in `cast_ptr_alignment`
Fixes#4708
Although there were some discussion in the issue, this PR implements the original feature. I think `cast_ptr_alignment` should exist as it is, separated from `ptr_as_ptr`.
---
changelog: Extend `cast_ptr_alignment` lint for the `pointer::cast` method
Change env var used for testing Clippy
This changes the variable used for testing Clippy in the internal test
suite:
```
CLIPPY_TESTS -> __CLIPPY_INTERNAL_TESTS
```
`CLIPPY_TESTS` is understandably used in environments of Clippy users,
so we shouldn't use it in our test suite.
changelog: Fix oversight which caused Clippy to lint deps in some environments.
