Take over: New lint bytes count to len
take over #8375close#8083
This PR adds new lint about considering replacing `.bytes().count()` with `.len()`.
Thank you in advance.

changelog: adds new lint [`bytes_count_to_len`] to consider replacing `.bytes().count()` with `.len()`
Add `await_holding_invalid_type` lint
changelog: [`await_holding_invalid_type`]
This lint allows users to create a denylist of types which are not allowed to be
held across await points. This is essentially a re-implementation of the
language-level [`must_not_suspend`
lint](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/83310). That lint has a lot of
work still to be done before it will reach Rust stable, and in the meantime
there are a lot of types which can trip up developers if they are used
improperly.
I originally implemented this specifically for `tracing::span::Entered`, until I discovered #8434 and read the commentary on that PR. Given this implementation is fully user configurable, doesn't tie clippy to any one particular crate, and introduces no additional dependencies, it seems more appropriate.

This lint checks if Option::take() is used on a temporary value (a value
that is not of type &mut Option and that is not a Place expression) to
suggest omitting take()
New lint `is_digit_ascii_radix`
Closes#6399
changelog: Added [`is_digit_ascii_radix`]: recommend `is_ascii_digit()` or `is_ascii_hexdigit()` in place of `is_digit(10)` and `is_digit(16)`
Add `crate_in_macro_def` lint
This PR adds a lint to check for `crate` as opposed to `$crate` used in a macro definition.
I think this can close#4798. That issue focused on the case where the macro author "imports something into said macro."
But I think use of `crate` is likely to be a bug whether it appears in a `use` statement or not. There could be some use case I am failing to see, though. (cc: `@nilscript` `@flip1995)`
changelog: `crate_in_macro_def`
new lint: `only_used_in_recursion`
changed:
- added `only_used_in_recursion`.
- fixed code that variables are only used in recursion.
- this would not lint when `unused_variable`
This fixes: #8390

Llint for casting between raw slice pointers with different element sizes
This lint disallows using `as` to convert from a raw pointer to a slice (e.g. `*const [i32]`, `*mut [Foo]`) to any other raw pointer to a slice if the element types have different sizes. When a raw slice pointer is cast, the data pointer and count metadata are preserved. This means that when the size of the inner slice's element type changes, the total number of bytes pointed to by the count changes. For example a `*const [i32]` with length 4 (four `i32` elements) is cast `as *const [u8]` the resulting pointer points to four `u8` elements at the same address, losing most of the data. When the size *increases* the resulting pointer will point to *more* data, and accessing that data will be UB.
On its own, *producing* the pointer isn't actually a problem, but because any use of the pointer as a slice will either produce surprising behavior or cause UB I believe this is a correctness lint. If the pointer is not intended to be used as a slice, the user should instead use any of a number of methods to produce just a data pointer including an `as` cast to a thin pointer (e.g. `p as *const i32`) or if the pointer is being created from a slice, the `as_ptr` method on slices. Detecting the intended use of the pointer is outside the scope of this lint, but I believe this lint will also lead users to realize that a slice pointer is only for slices.
There is an exception to this lint when either of the slice element types are zero sized (e.g `*mut [()]`). The total number of bytes pointed to by the slice with a zero sized element is zero. In that case preserving the length metadata is likely intended as a workaround to get the length metadata of a slice pointer though a zero sized slice.
The lint does not forbid casting pointers to slices with the *same* element size as the cast was likely intended to reinterpret the data in the slice as some equivalently sized data and the resulting pointer will behave as intended.

changelog: Added ``[`cast_slice_different_sizes`]``, a lint that disallows using `as`-casts to convert between raw pointers to slices when the elements have different sizes.
Add lint to detect `allow` attributes without reason
I was considering putting this lint into the pedantic group. However, that would result in countless warnings for existing projects. Having it in restriction also seems good to me 🙃 (And now I need sleep 💤 )

changelog: New lint [`allow_lint_without_reason`] (Requires the `lint_reasons` feature)
Closes: rust-lang/rust-clippy#8502
Add `unnecessary_find_map` lint
This PR adds an `unnecessary_find_map` lint. It is essentially just a minor enhancement of `unnecessary_filter_map`.
Closes#8467
