#7594: Adding new 'while_let_some_result' linting
Excited for the opportunity to contribute to Clippy! Since the latest Bay Area Rust Meetup, I've been looking for an opportunity and found it 😄
Please let me know how I can improve this PR! Much of it is similar to ``[`if_let_some_result`]``, but I followed the description in the issue to create its own linting rules. Looking forward to feedback, and continuing to work on Clippy in the future!
changelog: Renamed Lint: `if_let_some_result` is now called [`match_result_ok`]. Now also handles `while let` case.
bump clippy crates to edition 2021
Also helps with dogfooding edition 2021 a bit. :)
Tests passed locally.

changelog: bump edition from 2018 to 2021
Demote float_cmp to pedantic
See this issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/7666
This is one of the most frequently suppressed lints. It is deny-by-default. It is not actually clearly wrong, as there are many instances where direct float comparison is actually desirable. It is only after operating on floats that they may lose precision, and that depends greatly on the operation. As most correctness lints have a much higher standard of error, being based on hard and fast binary logic, this should not be amongst them.
A linter is not a substitute for observing the math carefully and running tests, and doing the desirable thing is even more likely to lead one to want exact comparisons.
changelog: Demote [`float_cmp`] from correctness to pedantic lints
Stop suggesting a float truncation that is not shorter
Fixes#7721.
Previously Clippy would say that a number has excessive precision even if it has the minimum possible precision for the floating point value that it corresponds to.
changelog: Fix [`excessive_precision`] being triggered on floats that are already written in shortest form
Don't lint `suspicious_else_formatting` inside proc-macros
fixes: #7650
I'll add a test for this one soon.

Expand box_vec lint to box_collection
fixed#7451
changelog: Expand `box_vec` into [`box_collection`], and have it error on all sorts of boxed collections
Tweak pedantic description for occasional FPs
changelog: none
Okay this is getting a bit picky (you might even say pedantic). I think we need to be careful not use the pedantic category as cover-all for lints with any amount of false positives. Lints with a high degree of FPs should be nursery or restriction IMO. If the pedantic category were to yield, say hypothetically, over 50% FPs, it would just be too annoying to use at all (to be sure, "too picky for me" is not a FP).

Retry on some download errors in lintcheck
I'm currently on spotty wifi right now. It is shocking the number of things that break when you lose connection for a few seconds. Some 500 errors should probably also be retried, but this fixes my issue.

Change `while_let_on_iterator` suggestion to use `by_ref()`
It came up in the discussion #7659 that suggesting `iter.by_ref()` is a clearer suggestion than `&mut iter`. I personally think they're equivalent, but if `by_ref()` is clearer to people then that should be the suggestion.
changelog: Change `while_let_on_iterator` suggestion when using `&mut` to use `by_ref()`
New lint: `same_name_method`
changelog: ``[`same_name_method`]``
fix: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/7632
It only compares a method in `impl` with another in `impl trait for`
It doesn't lint two methods in two traits.
I'm not sure my approach is the best way. I meet difficulty in other approaches.
Downgrade many_single_char_names to pedantic
As suggested by `@flip1995` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/7666#issuecomment-918993215, by today's standards this lint would be considered `pedantic`.
This is one of the most widely suppressed Clippy lints on crates.io according to https://github.com/dtolnay/noisy-clippy.
In my opinion this lint is just too domain specific for Clippy to have reliable visibility into. Sure there are some cases where the author is just being lazy and could use a kick in the butt, but we're still left with an enormous number of suppressions where single chars are the most appropriate name. For example in the context of colors, a function using `h`, `s`, `l`, `r`, `g`, `b` is 100% sensible and spelling all those out is silly, but it's past the default lint threshold.

changelog: Moved [`many_single_char_names`] to `pedantic`
Improve accuracy of `mut_key`
Fixes#6745.
Whilst writing the tests for this, I noticed what I believe is a false negative (the code in `@xFrednet's` [comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/6745#issuecomment-909658267) doesn't trigger the lint). Currently the tests contain a case for this (which is blatantly ignored), but I'm not at all sure how to implement this (since the lint currently behaves completely differently for ADTs). I'm not sure what should be done - on the one hand the extra test cases are misleading, but on the other hand they don't cause much harm and would save effort for anyone fixing that false negative.

changelog: Improve accuracy of `clippy::mutable_key_type`.
Updating issue templates to avoid @rustbot triggers
This adds a space between the ``@`` and the name *rustbot*. This should now surely fix it. If not, I'm giving up.

Target directory cleanup
changelog: none
* .cargo/config now has `target-dir` specified so that it is inherited by child projects. The target directory needs to be shared with clippy_dev, but not necessarily at the project root. (cc #7625)
* Uses `std::env::current_exe` (and its parent directories) whenever possible
* `CLIPPY_DRIVER_PATH` and `TARGET_LIBS` are no longer required from rustc bootstrap (but `HOST_LIBS` still is). These can be removed from the rustc side after merging.
* `CLIPPY_DOGFOOD` and the separate target directory are removed. This was originally added to mitigate #7343.
