add lint for recreation of an entire struct

This lint makes Clippy warn about situations where an owned struct is
essentially recreated by moving all its fields into a new instance of
the struct. The lint is not machine-applicable because the source
struct may have been partially moved.

This lint originated in something I spotted during peer review. While
working on their branch a colleague ended up with a commit where a
function returned a struct that 1:1 replicated one of its owned inputs
from its members. Initially I suspected they hadn’t run their code
through Clippy but AFAICS there is no lint for this situation yet.
