This adds a `àllow-useless-vec-in-test` configuration which, when set
to `true` will allow the `useless_vec` lint in `#[test]` functions and
code within `#[cfg(test)]`. It also moves a `is_in_test` helper to
`clippy_utils`.
Fixes#12544.
- don't report an item name if it consists only of a prefix from `allowed-prefixes` list and a module name (e.g. `AsFoo` in module `foo`).
- configured by `allowed-prefixes` config entry
- prefixes allowed by default: [`to`, `from`, `into`, `as`, `try_into`, `try_from`]
- update docs
new lint `legacy_numeric_constants`
Rework of #10997
- uses diagnostic items
- does not lint imports of the float modules (`use std::f32`)
- does not lint usage of float constants that look like `f32::MIN`
I chose to make the float changes because the following pattern is actually pretty useful
```rust
use std::f32;
let omega = freq * 2 * f32::consts::PI;
```
and the float modules are not TBD-deprecated like the integer modules.
Closes#10995

[#12312](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/12312)
Add new `duplicated_attributes` lint
It's a lint idea that `@llogiq` gave me while reviewing another PR.
There are some limitations, in particular for the "output". Initially I wanted to make it possible for directly lint against the whole attribute if its parts were all duplicated, but then I realized that the output would be chaotic if the duplicates were coming from different attributes, so I preferred to go to the simplest way and simply emit a warning for each entry. Not the best, but makes the implementation much easier.
Another limitation is that `cfg_attr` would be a bit more tricky to implement because we need to check if two `cfg` sets are exactly the same. I added a FIXME and will likely come back to it later.
And finally, I updated the `cargo dev update_lints` command because the generated `tests/ui/rename.rs` file was emitting the `duplicated_attributes` lint, so I allowed this lint inside it to prevent it from working.

New lint `const_is_empty`
This lint detects calls to `.is_empty()` on an entity initialized from a string literal and flag them as suspicious. To avoid triggering on macros called from generated code, it checks that the `.is_empty()` receiver, the call itself and the initialization come from the same context.
Fixes#12307
changelog: [`const_is_empty`]: new lint
Add new `mixed_attributes_style` lint
Add a new lint to detect cases where both inner and outer attributes are used on a same item.

Add new lint: `ref_as_ptr`
Fixes#10130
Added new lint `ref_as_ptr` that checks for conversions from references to pointers and suggests using `std::ptr::from_{ref, mut}` instead.
The name is different than suggested in the issue (`as_ptr_cast`) since there were some other lints with similar names (`ptr_as_ptr`, `borrow_as_ptr`) and I wanted to follow the convention.
Note that this lint conflicts with the `borrow_as_ptr` lint in the sense that it recommends changing `&foo as *const _` to `std::ptr::from_ref(&foo)` instead of `std::ptr::addr_of!(foo)`. Personally, I think the former is more readable and, in contrast to `addr_of` macro, can be also applied to temporaries (cf. #9884).
