Add new lint `ptr_cast_constness`
This adds a new lint which functions as the opposite side of the coin to `ptr_as_ptr`. Rather than linting only as casts that don't change constness, this lints only constness; suggesting to use `pointer::cast_const` or `pointer::cast_mut` instead.

fix: warn on empty line outer AttrKind::DocComment
changelog: [`empty_line_after_doc_comments`]: add lint for checking empty lines after rustdoc comments.
Fixes: #10395
Fixes#10609: Adds lint to detect construction of unit struct using `default`
Using `default` to construct a unit struct increases code complexity and adds a function call. This can be avoided by simply removing the call to `default` and simply construct by name.

Add `collection_is_never_read`
Fixes#9267
`@flip1995` and `@llogiq,` I talked with you about this one at Rust Nation in London last week. :-)
This is my first contribution to Clippy, so lots of feedback would be greatly appreciated.
- \[ ] Followed [lint naming conventions][lint_naming]
- \[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`
`dogfood` found one true positive (see #9509) and no false positives.
`lintcheck` found no (true or false) positives, even when running on an extended set of crates.

Add `impl_trait_in_params` lint
As this is a lint about style, and using `impl Trait` is purely cosmetical (even with downsides), a lot of unrelated files needed to allow this lint.

Add question-mark-used lint
This lint complains when the question mark operator (try operator) is used. This is a restriction lint that can be useful on local scopes where a custom error handling macro is supposed to be used to augment the error based on local scope data before returning.
Fixes#10340
