Correctly handle async blocks for NEEDLESS_PASS_BY_REF_MUT
Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/11299.
The problem was that the `async block`s are popping a closure which we didn't go into, making it miss the mutable access to the variables.

[`useless_conversion`]: only lint on paths to fn items and fix FP in macro
Fixes#11065 (which is actually two issues: an ICE and a false positive)
It now makes sure that the function call path points to a function-like item (and not e.g. a `const` like in the linked issue), so that calling `TyCtxt::fn_sig` later in the lint does not ICE (fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/11065#issuecomment-1616836099).
It *also* makes sure that the expression is not part of a macro call (fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/11065#issuecomment-1616919639). ~~I'm not sure if there's a better way to check this other than to walk the parent expr chain and see if any of them are expansions.~~ (edit: it doesn't do this anymore)

Rename and allow `cast_ref_to_mut` lint
This PR is a small subset of https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/112431, that is the renaming of the lint (`cast_ref_to_mut` -> `invalid_reference_casting`).
BUT also temporarily change the default level of the lint from deny-by-default to allow-by-default until https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/112431 is merged.

Uplift `clippy::fn_null_check` lint
This PR aims at uplifting the `clippy::fn_null_check` lint into rustc.
## `incorrect_fn_null_checks`
(warn-by-default)
The `incorrect_fn_null_checks` lint checks for expression that checks if a function pointer is null.
### Example
```rust
let fn_ptr: fn() = /* somehow obtained nullable function pointer */
if (fn_ptr as *const ()).is_null() { /* ... */ }
```
### Explanation
Function pointers are assumed to be non-null, checking for their nullity is incorrect.
