Add new lint to warn when #[must_use] attribute should be used on a method
This lint is somewhat similar to https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#must_use_candidate but also different: it emits a warning by default and only targets methods (so not functions nor associated functions).
Someone suggested it to me after this tweet: https://twitter.com/m_ou_se/status/1466439813230477312
I think it would reduce the number of cases of API misuses quite a lot.
What do you think?

changelog: Added new [`return_self_not_must_use`] lint
Ignore associated types in traits when considering type complexity
changelog: Ignore associated types in traits when checking ``[`type_complexity`]`` lint.
fixes#1013
Fix bad suggestion on `option_if_let_else` when there is complex subpat
closes#7991
Prefer not warning any complex subpat in `option_if_let_else` rather than suggesting obscure suggestions.
changelog: [`option_if_let_else`] does not warn when complex subpat is present
Parenthesize blocks in `needless_bool` suggestion
Because the `if .. {}` statement already puts the condition in expression scope, contained blocks would be parsed as complete
statements, so any `&` binary expression whose left operand ended in a block would lead to a non-compiling suggestion.
We identify such expressions and add parentheses. Note that we don't make a difference between normal and unsafe blocks because the parsing problems are the same for both.
This fixes#8052.

Because the `if .. {}` statement already puts the condition in

block would lead to a non-compiling suggestion.
This adds a visitor to identify such expressions and add parentheses.
This fixes#8052.
Consider NonNull as a pointer type
PR 1/2 for issue #8045. Add `NonNull` as a pointer class to suppress false positives like `UnsafeCell<NonNull<()>>`. However, this change is not sufficient to handle the cases shared in gtk-rs and Rug in the issue.

r? `@xFrednet`
Fix `any()` not taking reference in `search_is_some` lint
`find` gives reference to the item, but `any` does not, so suggestion is broken in some specific cases.
Fixes: #7392
changelog: [`search_is_some`] Fix suggestion for `any()` not taking item by reference
Improve `strlen_on_c_string`
fixes: #7436
changelog: lint `strlen_on_c_string` when used without a fully-qualified path
changelog: suggest removing the surrounding unsafe block for `strlen_on_c_string` when possible
Add `needless_late_init` lint
examples:
```rust
let a;
a = 1;
// to
let a = 1;
```
```rust
let b;
match 3 {
0 => b = "zero",
1 => b = "one",
_ => b = "many",
}
// to
let b = match 3 {
0 => "zero",
1 => "one",
_ => "many",
};
```
```rust
let c;
if true {
c = 1;
} else {
c = -1;
}
// to
let c = if true {
1
} else {
-1
};
```
changelog: Add [`needless_late_init`]
Add new lint `octal_escapes`
This checks for sequences in strings that would be octal character
escapes in C, but are not supported in Rust. It suggests either
to use the `\x00` escape, or an equivalent hex escape if the octal
was intended.
Fixes#7981
