Failed merges:
check that #[used] is used only on statics
this attribute has no effect on other items. This makes the implementation match what's described in the RFC.

Add more links in panic docs
Fixes#48695 by adding a link to `AssertUnwindSafe`. Also added some other links in the module's docs to make things clearer.
Make `Vec::new` a `const fn`
`RawVec::empty/_in` are a hack. They're there because `if size_of::<T> == 0 { !0 } else { 0 }` is not allowed in `const` yet. However, because `RawVec` is unstable, the `empty/empty_in` constructors can be removed when #49146 is done...
Bury Error::description()
Second attempt of #49536https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2230
The exact wording of the default implementation is still up in the air, but I think it's a detail that can be amended later.
Warn on pointless #[derive] in more places
This fixes the regression in #49934 and ensures that unused `#[derive]` invocations on statements, expressions and generic type parameters survive to trip the `unused_attributes` lint. There is a separate warning hardcoded for `#[derive]` on macro invocations since linting (even the early-lint pass) occurs after expansion. This also adds regression tests for some nodes that were already warning properly.

Update clippy
First time doing this. Not sure if this is enough as the docs mention that the Cargo.lock should be updated, however running `cargo update -p clippy` and `./x.py` doesn't change anything.
Closes https://github.com/rust-lang-nursery/rust-clippy/issues/2700
