New lint: Recommend using `ptr::eq` when possible
This is based almost entirely on the code available in the previous PR #4596. I merely updated the code to make it compile.
Fixes#3661.

Downgrade string_lit_as_bytes to nursery
Between #1402 (regarding `to_owned`) and #4494 (regarding `impl Read`), as well as other confusion I've seen hit in my work codebase involving string_lit_as_bytes (`"...".as_bytes().into()`), I don't think this lint is at a quality to be enabled by default.
I would consider re-enabling this lint after it is updated to understand when the surrounding type information is sufficient to unsize `b"..."` to &\[u8\] without causing a type error.
As currently implemented, this lint is pushing people to write `&b"_"[..]` which is not an improvement over `"_".as_bytes()` as far as I am concerned.

changelog: Remove string_lit_as_bytes from default set of enabled lints
Downgrade rc_buffer to restriction
I think Arc\<Vec\<T\>\> and Arc\<String\> and similar are a totally reasonable data structure, as observed by others in the comments on [#6044](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/6044#event-3799579830) as well. Doing `Arc::make_mut(&mut self.vec).push(...)` or `Arc::make_mut(&mut self.string).push_str("...")` is a terrific and well performing copy-on-write pattern. Linting this with an enabled-by-default <kbd>performance</kbd> lint strikes me as an unacceptable false positive balance.
As of #6090 the documentation of this lint now contains:
> **Known problems:** This pattern can be desirable ...
which should indicate that we shouldn't be linting against correct, reasonable, well-performing patterns with an enabled-by-default lint.
Mentioning #6044, #6090.

Lint for invisible Unicode characters other than ZWSP
This PR extends the existing `zero_width_space` lint to look for other invisible characters as well (in this case, `\\u{ad}` soft hyphen.
I feel like this lint is the logical place to add the check, but I also realize the lint name is not particularly flexible, but I also understand that it shouldn't be renamed for compatibility reasons.
Open questions:
- What other characters should trigger the lint?
- What should be done with the lint name?
- How to indicate the change in functionality?
Motivation behind this PR: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/77417 - I managed to shoot myself in the foot by an invisible character pasted into my test case.
changelog: rename [`zero_width_space`] to [`invisible_characters`] and add SHY and WJ to the list.
Add `rc_buffer` lint for checking Rc<String> and friends
Fixes#2623
This is a bit different from the original PR attempting to implement this type of lint. Rather than linting against converting into the unwanted types, this PR lints against declaring the unwanted type in a struct or function definition.
I'm reasonably happy with what I have here, although I used the fully qualified type names for the Path and OsString suggestions, and I'm not sure if I should have just used the short versions instead, even if they might not have been declared via use.
Also, I don't know if "buffer type" is the best way to put it or not. Alternatively I could call it a "growable type" or "growable buffer type", but I was thinking of PathBuf when I started making the lint.
changelog: Add `rc_buffer` lint
Add map_err_ignore lint
In a large code base a lot of times errors are ignored by using something like:
```rust
foo.map_err(|_| Some::Enum)?;
```
This drops the original error in favor of a enum that will not have the original error's context. This lint helps catch throwing away the original error in favor of an enum without its context.

*Please keep the line below*
changelog: Added map_err_ignore lint
Add a new lint, `manual-strip`, that suggests using the `str::strip_prefix`
and `str::strip_suffix` methods introduced in Rust 1.45 when the same
functionality is performed 'manually'.
Closes#5734
Add lint panic in result
### Change
Adding a new "restriction" lint that will emit a warning when using "panic", "unimplemented" or "unreachable" in a function of type option/result.
### Motivation
Some codebases must avoid crashes at all costs, and hence functions of type option/result must return an error instead of crashing.
### Test plan
Running:
TESTNAME=panic_in_result cargo uitest ---

This catches bugs of the form
tokio::spawn(async move {
let f = some_async_thing();
f // Oh no I forgot to await f so that work will never complete.
});
Warn about assignments where left-hand side place expression is the same
as right-hand side value expression. For example, warn about assignment in:
```rust
pub struct Event {
id: usize,
x: i32,
y: i32,
}
pub fn copy_position(a: &mut Event, b: &Event) {
a.x = b.x;
a.y = a.y;
}
```
This lint catches cases where the last statement of a closure expecting
an instance of Ord has a trailing semi-colon. It compiles since the
closure ends up return () which also implements Ord but causes
unexpected results in cases such as sort_by_key.
Fixes#5080
reprise: rebase, update and address all concerns
Move range_minus_one to pedantic
This moves the range_minus_one lint to the pedantic category, so there
will not be any warnings emitted by default. This should work around
problems where the suggestion is impossible to resolve due to the range
consumer only accepting a specific range implementation, rather than the
`RangeBounds` trait (see #3307).
While it is possible to work around this by extracting the boundary into
a variable, I don't think clippy should encourage people to disable or
work around lints, but instead the lints should be fixable. So hopefully
this will help until a proper implementation checks what the range is
used for.
*Please keep the line below*
changelog: move [`range_minus_one`] to pedantic
Added restriction lint: pattern-type-mismatch
changelog: Added a new restriction lint `pattern-type-mismatch`. This lint is especially helpful for beginners learning about the magic behind pattern matching. (This explanation might be worth to include in the next changelog.)
#5626: lint iterator.map(|x| x)
changelog: adds a new lint for iterator.map(|x| x) (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/5626)
The code also lints for result.map(|x| x) and option.map(|x| x). Also, I'm not sure if I'm checking for type adjustments correctly and I can't think of an example where .map(|x| x) would apply type adjustments.
let_and_return: avoid "does not live long enough" errors
EDIT: Add #3324 to the list of fixes
<details>
<summary>Description of old impl</summary>
<br>
Avoid suggesting turning the RHS expression of the last statement into the block tail expression if a temporary borrows from a local that would be destroyed before.
This is my first incursion into MIR so there's probably room for improvement!
</details>
Avoid linting if the return type of some method or function called in the last statement has a lifetime parameter.

New lint: iter_next_slice
Hello, this is a work-in-progress PR for issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/5572
I have implemented lint to replace `iter().next()` for `slice[index..]` and `array` with `get(index)` and `get(0)` respectively. However since I made a lot of changes, I would like to request some feedback before continuing so that I could fix mistakes.
Thank you!

changelog: implement `iter_next_slice` lint and test, and modify `needless_continues`, `for_loop_over_options_result` UI tests since they have `iter().next()`
New lint: `match_wildcard_for_single_variants`
changelog: Added a new lint match_wildcard_for_single_variants to warn on enum matches where a wildcard is used to match a single variant
Closes#5556
Rename lint `identity_conversion` to `useless_conversion`
Lint name `identity_conversion` was misleading, so this PR renames it to `useless_conversion`.
As decision has not really came up in the issue comments, this PR will probably need discussion.

Merge some lints together
This PR merges following lints:
- `block_in_if_condition_expr` and `block_in_if_condition_stmt` → `blocks_in_if_conditions`
- `option_map_unwrap_or`, `option_map_unwrap_or_else` and `result_map_unwrap_or_else` → `map_unwrap`
- `option_unwrap_used` and `result_unwrap_used` → `unwrap_used`
- `option_expect_used` and `result_expect_used` → `expect_used`
- `wrong_pub_self_convention` into `wrong_self_convention`
- `for_loop_over_option` and `for_loop_over_result` → `for_loops_over_fallibles`
Lints that have already been merged since the issue was created:
- [x] `new_without_default` and `new_without_default_derive` → `new_without_default`
Need more discussion:
- `string_add` and `string_add_assign`: do we agree to merge them or not? Is there something more to do? → **not merge finally**
- `identity_op` and `modulo_one` → `useless_arithmetic`: seems outdated, since `modulo_arithmetic` has been created.
fixes#1078
