/// does report on arrays if we can tell that slicing operations are in bounds and does not
/// lint on constant `usize` indexing on arrays because that is handled by rustc's `const_err` lint.

/// **Why is this bad?** Indexing and slicing can panic at runtime and there are
/// safe alternatives.

/// // Vector

/// // Bad
/// x[2];
/// &x[2..100];
/// &x[2..];
/// &x[..100];
