/// **What it does:** Checks for usage of `std::mem::forget(t)` where `t` is
/// `Drop`.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** `std::mem::forget(t)` prevents `t` from running its
/// destructor, possibly causing leaks.
///
/// **Known problems:** None.
///
/// **Example:**
/// ```rust
/// mem::forget(Rc::new(55))
/// ```
