Carol (Nichols || Goulding) 8e1dc0481c Include consts in the approx_consts lint for easier copypasting
If you try to use `f64::PI`, it won't work-- you need to use
`f64::consts::PI`, so suggest that in the lint message.

/// **What it does:** This lint checks for floating point literals that approximate constants which are defined in [`std::f32::consts`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/f32/consts/#constants) or [`std::f64::consts`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/f64/consts/#constants), respectively, suggesting to use the predefined constant.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** Usually, the definition in the standard library is more precise than what people come up with. If you find that your definition is actually more precise, please [file a Rust issue](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues).
///
/// **Known problems:** If you happen to have a value that is within 1/8192 of a known constant, but is not *and should not* be the same, this lint will report your value anyway. We have not yet noticed any false positives in code we tested clippy with (this includes servo), but YMMV.
