[`unused_async`]: do not consider `await` in nested `async` blocks as used
Fixes#10800.
This PR makes sure that `await` expressions inside of inner `async` blocks don't prevent the lint from triggering.
For example
```rs
async fn foo() {
async {
std::future::ready(()).await;
}
}
```
Even though there *is* a `.await` expression in this function, it's contained in an async block, which means that the enclosing function doesn't need to be `async` too.

validate lint name in `clippy_dev`
This PR adds a little bit of validation to `cargo dev new_lint`. I've had it happen a few times where I wanted to add a new lint, but forgot that lint names cannot contain `-`. If you try to do it anyway, `clippy_dev` will generate illegal syntax (like adding `mod test-lint;` to clippy_lints/src/lib.rs for the module declaration). Maybe having it error out early would be helpful to others too.

Add new lint `ptr_cast_constness`
This adds a new lint which functions as the opposite side of the coin to `ptr_as_ptr`. Rather than linting only as casts that don't change constness, this lints only constness; suggesting to use `pointer::cast_const` or `pointer::cast_mut` instead.

needless_else: new lint to check for empty `else` clauses
Empty `else` clauses are useless. They happen in the wild and are not linted yet: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/pull/4880/files
`else` clauses containing or preceded by comments are not linted as the comments might be important.

Fix missing block for unsafe code
If a block is declared as unsafe, it needs an extra layer of curly braces around it.
Fixes#10808
This code adds handling for `UnsafeSource::UserProvided` block, i.e. `unsafe { ... }`. Note that we do not handle the `UnsafeSource::CompilerGenerated` as it seems to not be possible to generate that with the user code (?), or at least doesn't seem to be needed to be handled explicitly.
There is an issue with this code: it does not add an extra indentation for the unsafe blocks. I think this is a relatively minor concern for such an edge case, and should probably be done by a separate PR (fixing compile bug is more important than getting styling perfect especially when `rustfmt` will fix it anyway)
```rust
// original code
unsafe {
...
}
// code that is now generated by this PR
{ unsafe {
...
} }
// what we would ideally like to get
{
unsafe {
...
}
}
```

[`large_stack_arrays`]: check array initializer expressions
Fixes#10741.
Prior to this PR, the lint only checked array repeat expressions (ie. `[T; n]`). Now it also checks array initializer expressions.

[`match_wild_err_arm`]: do not lint in const contexts
Fixes#10635.
changelog: [`match_wild_err_arm`]: do not lint in const contexts as `Result::{unwrap, expect}` is not const-stable
These unit tests generate non-compilable code. I did NOT `bless` them on purpose because the stderr output is not good.
I'm surprised we don't auto-compile the suggestions here - is this something that can be easily enabled?
