/// **What it does:** This lint warns on needlessly including a base struct on update when all fields are changed anyway.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** This will cost resources (because the base has to be somewhere), and make the code less readable.
///
/// **Known problems:** None.
///
/// **Example:** `Point { x: 1, y: 0, ..zero_point }`
