/// ### What it does
/// Detects the use of outer doc comments (`///`, `/**`) followed by a bang (`!`): `///!`
///
/// ### Why is this bad?
/// Triple-slash comments (known as "outer doc comments") apply to items that follow it.
/// An outer doc comment followed by a bang (i.e. `///!`) has no specific meaning.
///
/// The user most likely meant to write an inner doc comment (`//!`, `/*!`), which
/// applies to the parent item (i.e. the item that the comment is contained in,
/// usually a module or crate).
///
/// ### Known problems
/// Inner doc comments can only appear before items, so there are certain cases where the suggestion
/// made by this lint is not valid code. For example:
/// ```rs
/// fn foo() {}
/// ///!
/// fn bar() {}
/// ```
/// This lint detects the doc comment and suggests changing it to `//!`, but an inner doc comment
/// is not valid at that position.
///
/// ### Example
/// In this example, the doc comment is attached to the *function*, rather than the *module*.
/// ```rust
/// pub mod util {
/// ///! This module contains utility functions.
///
/// pub fn dummy() {}
/// }
/// ```
///
/// Use instead:
/// ```rust
/// pub mod util {
/// //! This module contains utility functions.
///
/// pub fn dummy() {}
/// }
/// ```
