Updated changelog for 1.55
This has again been a bit of work, but I'm happy to notice that my English is still improving, and I'm getting faster at these things. That's a very nice side effect of contributing and getting feedback on reviews 😊
Moving on, there were a few things that I was unsure about:
* The PR rust-lang/rust#86717 changes an old entry in the change log, is this worth mentioning? I've left it out for now.
* The stabilization of `cargo clippy --fix` is quite awesome and important IMO. It sadly gets a bit lost in the *Other* entry, as it's the last one. Do we maybe want to move it somewhere else or change the headline order for this release?
* I've listed the introduction of the new `suspicious` group under the *Moves and Deprecations* section. Is this alright, or should it be moved to the *Other* section as well?
* Last but definitely not least, some fun! I've used the 🎉 emoji in the `cargo clippy --fix` entry, is this okay?
Sorry for the bombardment of questions xD

The PR already includes the entries for the new metadata collection and website updates. These are not merged yet, but should probably be to make this correct. This might also require the commit hashes to be updated (Not sure on this, though). It would actually be super fitting to get this into this release as we also stabilize `--fix`. TODOs:
* [x] Merge metadata collection PRs:
1. #7279
2. #7298
3. #7420 (Hope to not get any merge conflicts)

Rename two lints to comply with our lint naming convention
self_named_constructor -> self_named_constructors
append_instead_of_extend -> extend_with_drain
We don't need to `register_renamed` those lints, since I'll backport them to beta, so the old names won't hit stable.

Update lint documentation to use markdown headlines
This PR updates all lint documentation to use markdown headlines. It additionally removed the *Known problems* section for lints without any problems. I've double-checked all automatic replacements, but a second pair of eyes is definitely appreciated!
I wasn't sure when you wanted to switch to the new metadata collection tomorrow, I therefore prepared this PR today. And that's it this is a standalone PR to keep the other related PRs reviewable.

Note: This should be merged with the other metadata collection related PRs.
Switch CI to new metadata collection
r? `@xFrednet`
Things we have to keep in mind:
- This removes the template files and the scripts used for deployment from the checkout. This was added in #5517. I don't think we ever needed those there. Not sure though.
- ~~As a result, we can't remove the python scripts yet. We have to wait until this hits a stable Clippy release.~~ I'll just break the next stable deploy and do it by hand once.
- This should be merged together with #7279. Me and `@xFrednet` will coordinate the switch
- ...?
I still have to try out some things:
- [x] Is it worth caching? Yes
- [x] ~~Is it worth to do a release build?~~ Nope
- [x] Does it actually work? With a few changes, yes
- [ ] ...?
changelog: Clippy now uses a lint to generate its documentation 🎉
Adapting the lint list to Clippy's new metadata format
This is close to the end of a long living project to rewrite the lint metadata collection for Clippy. Progress on this has been tracked in #7172. This PR adds one of the last missing puzzle pieces, the actual display of all the changes that have been done in the background. A preview can be seen here: [Clippy's lint list](https://xfrednet.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html)
The styling has been discussed on [zulip](https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/257328-clippy/topic/Styling.20feedback.20for.20Clippy's.20lint.20list/near/239601067) but is still open to suggestion.
Side note: It has been fun working on the website where we don't have unit tests and everything is just tested by playing around. However, it's good that this chaos is contained into this one part of Clippy. 🐛

This updates all the deploy scripts and the deploy workflow.
The deploy workflow now runs the metadata collector to collect the lint
documentation. It also changes the files that are checked out in the
deploy workflow from master and adds an explanation why we have to do
this.
Explain flags missing in cargo check in --help
This commit closes#7389. As stated in the issue, `cargo clippy --help`
provides explanation for some flags and states that the rest are same
as in `cargo check --help`, even though some clippy specific flags
exist.
This commit extends the `cargo clippy --help` with two additional flags,
- `cargo clippy --fix`
- `cargo clippy --no-deps`
If there are more flags which are not present in `cargo check --help`
please bring these to my attention, I will include these aswell.
For now, I noticed only the two flags mentioned above.
changelog: `cargo clippy --help` now explains additional flags missing in `cargo check --help`.
Fix docs of disallowed_type
Add ability to name primitive types without import path
Move primitive resolution to clippy_utils path_to_res fn
Refactor Res matching, fix naming and docs from review
Use tcx.def_path_str when emitting the lint
As proposed in the pull request thread, there is some inconsistency in
handling the `--no-deps` flag which requires `--` before it, and
`--fix` flag which does not.
In this commit the `--no-deps` flag does not need the `--` anymore.
However, it can still be used that way: `cargo clipyy -- --no-deps`.
Use diagnostic items where possible
Clippy still uses a bunch of paths in places that could easily use already defined diagnostic items. This PR updates all references to such paths and also removes a bunch of them that are no longer needed after this cleanup.
Some paths are also used to construct new paths and can therefore not be removed that easily. I've added a doc comment to those instances that recommends the use of the diagnostic item where possible.
And that's it, cleaning crew signing off 🧹🗑️

Improve conflicting rlibs error again

Now you can do `rm <paste>` and 🐇💨

`--no-deps` filled in with a little more information. Explain that
`--fix` implies `--no-deps`.
Explain that `--no-deps` is used with `cargo clippy --`, including
one example.
Prefer a code snipped over formatting the self type (`new_without_default`)
Fixes: rust-lang/rust-clippy#7220

Have a nice day to everyone reading this 🙃
Some `clippy::author` improvements
changelog: none
* Use `Debug` instead of re-implementing it for some things

Store all HIR owners in the same container
This replaces the previous storage in a BTreeMap for each of Item/ImplItem/TraitItem/ForeignItem.
This should allow for a more compact storage.
Based on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/83114
Documented constant expression evaluation for `repeat_once`
Documents the fact that the `repeat_once` lint evaluates constant expressions

(I don't think it's worth a change log entry, as nothing has really changed)
r? `@giraffate` as you've implemented the lint and were part of the discussion in the issue 🙃
