/// ### What it does
/// Warns about fields in struct implementing `Send` that are neither `Send` nor `Copy`.
/// This lint warns about a `Send` implementation for a type that
/// contains fields that are not safe to be sent across threads.
/// It tries to detect fields that can cause a soundness issue
/// when sent to another thread (e.g., `Rc`) while allowing `!Send` fields
/// that are expected to exist in a `Send` type such as raw pointers.
///
/// ### Why is this bad?
/// Sending the struct to another thread will transfer the ownership to
/// the new thread by dropping in the current thread during the transfer.
/// This causes soundness issues for non-`Send` fields, as they are also
/// dropped and might not be set up to handle this.
/// Sending the struct to another thread effectively sends all of its fields,
/// and the fields that do not implement `Send` can lead to soundness bugs
/// such as data races when accessed in a thread
/// that is different from the thread that created it.
///
/// See:
/// * [*The Rustonomicon* about *Send and Sync*](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/send-and-sync.html)
/// * [The documentation of `Send`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/marker/trait.Send.html)
///
/// ### Known Problems
/// Data structures that contain raw pointers may cause false positives.
/// They are sometimes safe to be sent across threads but do not implement
/// the `Send` trait. This lint has a heuristic to filter out basic cases
/// such as `Vec<*const T>`, but it's not perfect. Feel free to create an
/// issue if you have a suggestion on how this heuristic can be improved.
/// This lint relies on heuristics to distinguish types that are actually
/// unsafe to be sent across threads and `!Send` types that are expected to
/// exist in `Send` type. Its rule can filter out basic cases such as
/// `Vec<*const T>`, but it's not perfect. Feel free to create an issue if
/// you have a suggestion on how this heuristic can be improved.
