Adding the ability to invalidate caches to force metadata collection
This adds the discussed hack to touch `clippy_lints/src/lib.rs` to invalidate cargos cache and force metadata collection. I've decided to use the [`filetime`](https://github.com/alexcrichton/filetime) crate instead of the touch command to make is cross-platform and just cleaner in general. Looking at the maintainers I would say that it's a save crate to use xD.

Move `semicolon_if_nothing_returned` to `pedantic`
This moves the `semicolon_if_nothing_returned` lint to `pedantic` category.
I had done #7148, but on the master branch, and Github doesn't seem to let me change that, so here's another PR
changelog: Move [`semicolon_if_nothing_returned`] lint into `pedantic` category.
Some SpanlessHash improvements
changelog: none
* Use `mem::discriminant().hash()` instead of `stable_hash` for simple enums and then use `FxHasher` instead of `StableHasher`. We don't use any StableHash features.
* Use `UnHashMap` for maps keyed by spanless hash values.
Fix invalid syntax in `from_iter_instead_of_collect` suggestion
First attempt at contributing, hopefully this is a good start and can be improved. :)

Move `needless_borrow` to style

fix `needless_borrow` suggestion
fixes: #2610
While I'm working on this, should needless_borrow be split into two? One lint for expressions and another for patterns. In expression it only lints when the compiler inserts a dereference, but for patterns it's whenever a double reference is created. I think at least the case where a double reference is needed should be split into a new lint as it's not 'needless', it can just be done without a ref binding.
For illustration:
```rust
fn foo(x: &&str) {}
match Some("test") {
// ref binding is useless here
Some(ref x) => *x,
_ => (),
}
match Some("test") {
// ref binding is useless here
Some(ref x) => x.len(),
_ => (),
}
match Some("test") {
// double reference is needed, but could be `Some(x) => foo(&x)`
Some(ref x) => foo(x),
_ => (),
}
```
changelog: Improve the suggestion for `needless_borrow` in patterns to change all usage sites as needed.

Early return from LintPass registration when collecting metadata
This speeds up the metadata collection by 2-2.5x on my machine. During
metadata collection other lint passes don't have to be registered, only
the lints themselves.

Rustup
r? `@ghost`
cc `@xFrednet` There was a change to the `rustc_span::FileName` removing the `Display` impl for it. I adapted the metadata collector to compile with that change. I'm not sure if I changed the behavior with this. The path to the string is now printed relative to the `clippy_lints` dir. So for example `src/swap.rs`. I think this should be fine, but probably something to be aware of.

Adding the default lint level to the metadata collection
I noticed while working on the website adaption that the lint groups still had the `clippy::` prefix in the JSON output. This PR removes this prefix and adds a `level` field to each lint and with that simplifies the website display and saves performance.
The deprecated lints get are assigned to the level `none`. This is a bit different in comparison to the current lint list, but I believe that this will look better overall. Unless there is any argument against this :).
That's it just a small baby PR in comparison to the original monster ^^
