Fix missing_docs_in_private_items false negative
changelog: Fix [`missing_docs_in_private_items`] false negative when the item has any `#[name = "value"]` attribute
Closes#7247 (decided not to use the rustc method since it calls `Session::check_name`, which is for rustc only)
Fix allow on some statement lints
changelog: Fix `#[allow(..)]` over statements for [`needless_collect`], [`short_circuit_statement`] and [`unnecessary_operation`]
Fixes#7171Fixes#7202
Fix invalid syntax in `from_iter_instead_of_collect` suggestion
First attempt at contributing, hopefully this is a good start and can be improved. :)
fixes#7259
changelog: [`from_iter_instead_of_collect`] fix invalid suggestion involving "as Trait"
Don't lint `multiple_inherent_impl` with generic arguments
fixes: #5772
changelog: Treat different generic arguments as different types in `multiple_inherent_impl`
Remove powi, "square can be computed more efficiently"
powi(2) produces exactly the same native code as x * x
powi was part of the [`suboptimal_flops`] lint
fixes#7058
changelog: Remove powi [`suboptimal_flops`], "square can be computed more efficiently"
Add `needless_bitwise_bool` lint
fixes#6827fixes#1594
changelog: Add ``[`needless_bitwise_bool`]`` lint
Creates a new `bitwise_bool` lint to convert `x & y` to `x && y` when both `x` and `y` are booleans. I also had to adjust thh `needless_bool` lint slightly, and fix a couple failing dogfood tests. I made it a correctness lint as per flip1995's comment [here](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/3385#issuecomment-434715723), from a previous WIP attempt at this lint.
Fix FPs about generic args
Fix 2 false positives in [`use_self`] and [`useless_conversion`] lints, by taking into account generic args and comparing them.

New lint: `unused_async`
changelog: Adds a lint, `unused_async`, which checks for async functions with no await statements
`unused_async` is a lint that reduces code smell and overhead by encouraging async functions to be refactored into synchronous functions.
Fixes#7176
### Examples
```rust
async fn get_random_number() -> i64 {
4 // Chosen by fair dice roll. Guaranteed to be random.
}
```
Could be written as:
```rust
fn get_random_number() -> i64 {
4 // Chosen by fair dice roll. Guaranteed to be random.
}
```
Something like this, however, should **not** be caught by clippy:
```rust
#[async_trait]
trait AsyncTrait {
async fn foo();
}
struct Bar;
#[async_trait]
impl AsyncTrait for Bar {
async fn foo() {
println!("bar");
}
}
```
Stop linting `else if let` pattern in [`option_if_let_else`] lint
For readability concerns, it is counterproductive to lint `else if let` pattern.
Unfortunately the suggested code is much less readable.
Fixes: #7006
changelog: stop linting `else if let` pattern in [`option_if_let_else`] lint
`needless_collect` enhancements
fixes#7164
changelog: `needless_collect`: For `BTreeMap` and `HashMap` lint only `is_empty`, as `len` might produce different results than iter's `count`
changelog: `needless_collect`: Lint `LinkedList` and `BinaryHeap` in direct usage case as well
Trigger [`wrong_self_convention`] only if it has implicit self
Lint [`wrong_self_convention`] only if the impl or trait has `self` _per sé_.
Fixes: #7179
changelog: trigger [`wrong_self_convention`] only if it has implicit self
match_single_binding: Fix invalid suggestion when match scrutinee has side effects
fixes#7094
changelog: `match_single_binding`: Fix invalid suggestion when match scrutinee has side effects
---
`Expr::can_have_side_effects` is used to determine the scrutinee has side effects, while this method is a little bit conservative for our use case. But I'd like to use it to avoid reimplementation of the method and too much heuristics. If you think this is problematic, then I'll implement a custom visitor to address it.
* Suggest `&mut iter` when the iterator is used after the loop.
* Suggest `&mut iter` when the iterator is a field in a struct.
* Don't lint when the iterator is a field in a struct, and the struct is
used in the loop.
* Lint when the loop is nested in another loop, but suggest `&mut iter`
unless the iterator is from a local declared inside the loop.
Fix needless_quesiton_mark false positive
changelog: Fix [`needless_question_mark`] false positive where the inner value is implicity dereferenced by the question mark.
Fixes#7107
