useless Rc<Rc<T>>, Rc<Box<T>>, Rc<&T>, Box<&T>
refers to #2394
changelog: Add lints for Rc<Rc<T>> and Rc<Box<T>> and Rc<&T>, Box<&T>
this is based on top of another change #5310 so probably should go after that one.
Downgrade option_option to pedantic
Based on a search of my work codebase (\>500k lines) for `Option<Option<`, it looks like a bunch of reasonable uses to me. The documented motivation for this lint is:
> an optional optional value is logically the same thing as an optional value but has an unneeded extra level of wrapping
which seems a bit bogus in practice. For example a typical usage would look like:
```rust
let mut host: Option<String> = None;
let mut port: Option<i32> = None;
let mut payload: Option<Option<String>> = None;
for each field {
match field.name {
"host" => host = Some(...),
"port" => port = Some(...),
"payload" => payload = Some(...), // can be null or string
_ => return error,
}
}
let host = host.ok_or(...)?;
let port = port.ok_or(...)?;
let payload = payload.ok_or(...)?;
do_thing(host, port, payload)
```
This lint seems to fit right in with the pedantic group; I don't think linting on occurrences of `Option<Option<T>>` by default is justified.

changelog: Remove option_option from default set of enabled lints
Lint unnamed address comparisons
Functions and vtables have an insignificant address. Attempts to compare such addresses will lead to very surprising behaviour. For example: addresses of different functions could compare equal; two trait object pointers representing the same object and the same type could be unequal.
Lint against unnamed address comparisons to avoid issues like those in rust-lang/rust#69757 and rust-lang/rust#54685.
changelog: New lints: [`fn_address_comparisons`] [#5294](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/5294), [`vtable_address_comparisons`] [#5294](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/5294)
`unused_self` false positive
fixes#5351
Remove the for loop in `unused_self` so that lint enabled for one method doesn't trigger on another method.
changelog: Fix false positive in `unused_self` around lint gates on impl items
Move verbose_file_reads to restriction
cc #5368
Using `File::read` instead of `fs::read_to_end` does make sense in multiple cases, so this lint is rather restriction, than complexity
changelog: Move [`verbose_file_reads`] to restriction
Lint for `pub(crate)` items that are not crate visible due to the visibility of the module that contains them
changelog: Add `redundant_pub_crate` lint
Closes#5274.
Fix single binding closure
Fix the `match_single_binding` lint when triggered inside a closure.
Fixes: #5347
changelog: Improve suggestion for [`match_single_binding`]
Improvement: Don't show function body in needless_lifetimes
Changes the span on which the lint is reported to point to only the
function return type instead of the entire function body.
Fixes#5284
changelog: none
