This PR is used for close #7946(Fixes#7946).
changelog: Add test for pattern_type_mismatch.
Improve `strlen_on_c_string`
fixes: #7436
changelog: lint `strlen_on_c_string` when used without a fully-qualified path
changelog: suggest removing the surrounding unsafe block for `strlen_on_c_string` when possible
Add `needless_late_init` lint
examples:
```rust
let a;
a = 1;
// to
let a = 1;
```
```rust
let b;
match 3 {
0 => b = "zero",
1 => b = "one",
_ => b = "many",
}
// to
let b = match 3 {
0 => "zero",
1 => "one",
_ => "many",
};
```
```rust
let c;
if true {
c = 1;
} else {
c = -1;
}
// to
let c = if true {
1
} else {
-1
};
```
changelog: Add [`needless_late_init`]
Add more descriptive help info for `needless_question_mark`
closes#8016
changelog: [`needless_question_mark`] help suggestion now explains what should be changed
Fix FP on `if_then_some_else_none` when there is early return
closes#7870
changelog: [`if_then_some_else_none`] now does not fire when there is early return
Add new lint `octal_escapes`
This checks for sequences in strings that would be octal character
escapes in C, but are not supported in Rust. It suggests either
to use the `\x00` escape, or an equivalent hex escape if the octal
was intended.
Fixes#7981

changelog: Add new lint [`octal_escapes`], which checks for literals like `"\033[0m"`.
Allow `suboptimal_flops` in const functions
This PR allows `clippy::suboptimal_flops` in constant functions. The check also effects the `clippy::imprecise_flops` lint logic. However, this doesn't have any effects as all functions checked for are not const and can therefore not be found in such functions.

changelog: [`suboptimal_flops`]: No longer triggers in constant functions
Closes: rust-lang/rust-clippy#8004
Avoid inline hints with double backticks for `doc-markdown`
The easiest route here was to ensure that the suggestion is always shown on
its own line, where no additional backticks are added by the diagnostic formatter.
Fixes#8002

Pluralize `disallowed_type` lint
This was brought up in [Zulip] and is also mentioned in the lint naming
conventions. Since this is still a nursery lint, I think there shouldn't
be any problem in renaming it.

changelog: Rename nursery lint [`disallowed_type`] to [`disallowed_types`].
