New lint: Recommend using `ptr::eq` when possible
This is based almost entirely on the code available in the previous PR #4596. I merely updated the code to make it compile.
Fixes#3661.
- [ ] I'm not sure about the lint name, but it was the one used in the original PR.
- [X] Added passing UI tests (including committed `.stderr` file)
- [X] `cargo test` passes locally
- [X] Executed `cargo dev update_lints`
- [X] Added lint documentation
- [X] Run `cargo dev fmt`

clippy_lints: Do not warn against Box parameter in C FFI
changelog: [`boxed_local`]: don't lint in `extern fn` arguments
Fixes#5542.
When using C FFI, to handle pointers in parameters it is needed to
declare them as `Box` in its Rust-side signature. However, the current
linter warns against the usage of Box stating that "local variable
doesn't need to be boxed here".
This commit fixes it by ignoring functions whose Abi is C.
unnecessary sort by: avoid dereferencing the suggested closure parameter
This change tries to simplify the solution for problematic cases but is less restrictive than #6006.
* We can't dereference shared references to non-Copy types, so the new suggestion does not do that. Note that this implies that the suggested closure parameter will be a reference.
* We can't take a reference to the closure parameter in the returned key, so we don't lint in those cases. This can happen either because the key borrows from the parameter (e.g. `|a| a.borrows()`), or because we suggest `|a| Reverse(a)`. If we did we would hit this error:
```
error: lifetime may not live long enough

19 | vec.sort_by_key(|b| Reverse(b));

```
Note that Clippy does not currently have the (MIR-based) machinery necessary to check that what is borrowed is actually the closure parameter.
changelog: [`unnecessary_sort_by`]: avoid dereferencing the suggested closure parameter
Fixes#6001
fix a false positive in two `interior_mutable_const` lints where a constant with enums gets linted
even if it uses a clearly unfrozen variant. Note that the code uses the MIR interpreter, which
the author of #3962 thought unlikely to be a solution. This might be over-engineering;
but, I think it's important to be able to work with the 'http' crate (#3825).
* remove a 'ERROR' comment from `borrow`
`Vec<AtomicUsize>` itself is `Freeze` as it holds the atomic in heap
* remove `ONCE_INIT` from `declare`
it seems like an artifact from previous spliting
Don't emit a lint for the suggestion leading to errors in `needless_range_loop`

New Lint: disallowed_method
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/6073
I added a `disallowed_method` lint that works similar to `blacklisted_name`, e.g allows config-defined disallowed method calls.
This lint allows advanced users to patch in undesired method calls for specific projects. It basically uses the DefId of method calls and matches it to parsed strings. Is there an alternative approach that could use more easily digestible configuration strings?
All tests pass as expected except for a linting error on `ui/redundant_pattern_matching_option`, which I am not sure how to resolve since I don't think I changed anything affecting it.
changelog: Add disallowed_method lint to warn on user-defined method calls
Fix FP in `print_stdout`
Fix#6041
This lint shouldn't be emitted in `build.rs` as `println!` and `print!` are used for the build script.
