Backport of #7170 to beta
r? `@ghost`
changelog: none (fixes stack overflow, but this was introduced in this release cycle)
Now actually opened towards the `beta` branch.
Fix stack overflow issue in `redundant_pattern_matching`
Fixes#7169
~~cc `@Jarcho` Since tomorrow is release day and we need to get this also fixed in beta, I'll just revert the PR instead of looking into the root issue. Your changes are good, so if you have an idea what could cause this stack overflow and know how to fix it, please open a PR that reverts this revert with a fix.~~

The whole point of named fields is that we don't have to worry about
order. The names, not the position, communicate the information, so
worrying about consistency for consistency's sake is pedantic to a *T*.
Fixes#7192.

Handle write!(buf, "\n") case better
Make `write!(buf, "\n")` suggest `writeln!(buf)` by removing
the trailing comma from `writeln!(buf, )`.
changelog: [`write_with_newline`] suggestion on only "\n" improved
For `to_*` variant don't lint in trait impl taking `self` when non-`Copy` type
Lint name: `wrong_self_convention`.
It relaxes rules for `to_*` variant, so it doesn't lint in trait definitions and implementations anymore.
Although, non-`Copy` type implementing trait's `to_*` method taking
`self` feels not good (consumes ownership, so should be rather named `into_`), it would be better if this case was a pedantic lint (allow-by-default) instead.

Fix duplicated "Rust 1.52" version section header
The most recent changelog update 037ddf282b accompanying the 1.52 release added a second "Rust 1.52" section header, with the result that the Rust release announcement https://blog.rust-lang.org/2021/05/06/Rust-1.52.0.html is linking to the "current beta" changelog section for Clippy rather than the stable changelog. I don't know the release process but based on previous changes to this file, I assume the correct thing to do is to mark the topmost section as being for Rust 1.53, not 1.52.

Refactor: arrange lints in misc_early module
This PR arranges misc_early lints so that they can be accessed more easily.
Basically, I refactored them following the instruction described in #6680.

A metadata collection monster
This PR introduces a metadata collection lint as discussed in #4310. It currently collects:
* The lint ID
* The lint declaration file and location (for #1303)
* The lint group
* The documentation
* The applicability (if resolvable)
* If the suggestion is a multi-part-suggestion
This data has a slightly different structure than the current [lints.json](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/blob/gh-pages/master/lints.json) and doesn't include depreciated lints yet. I plan to adapt the website to the new format and include depreciated lints in a follow-up PR :). The current collected json looks like this: [metadata_collection.json](https://gist.github.com/xFrednet/6b9e2c3f725f476ba88db9563f67e119)
The entire implementation is guarded behind the `metadata-collector-lint` feature and the `ENABLE_METADATA_COLLECTION` environment value to prevent default collection. You can test the implementation via:
```sh
$ ENABLE_METADATA_COLLECTION=1 cargo test --test dogfood --all-features
```
changelog: none

The size of this PR sadly also grew into a small monster, sorry! I definitely plan to improve on this! And it's totally okay if you take your time with this :)
