The `MissingDoc` lint has quadratic behaviour when processing doc comments.
This is a problem for large doc comments (e.g. 1000+ lines) when
`deny(missing_code)` is enabled.
A 1000-line doc comment using `//!` comments is represented as 1000 attributes
on an item. The lint machinery iterates over each attribute with
`visit_attribute`. `MissingDoc`'s impl of that function calls
`with_lint_attrs`, which calls `enter_attrs`, which iterates over all 1000
attributes looking for a `doc(hidden)` attribute. I.e. for every attribute we
iterate over all the other attributes.
The fix is simple: don't call `with_lint_attrs` on attributes. This makes
sense: `with_lint_attrs` is intended to iterate over the attributes on a
language fragment like a statement or expression, but it doesn't need to
be called on attributes themselves.
