/// **What it does:** This lint checks for usage of `Box<T>` where an unboxed `T` would work fine. It is `Warn` by default.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** This is an unnecessary allocation, and bad for performance
///
/// It is only necessary to allocate if you wish to move the box into something.
///
/// **Example:**
///
/// ```rust
/// fn main() {
///     let x = Box::new(1);
///     foo(*x);
///     println!("{}", *x);
/// }
/// ```
