`span_suggestions` is to provide mutually exclusive suggestions. When it was introduced, we made its behavior be that if a single suggestion is given to it, we present the suggestion inline, otherwise in patch format. Changing this to make all of its uses be verbose, as that is closer in intent of output.
The name `pass_by_value` is completely wrong. The lint actually checks
for the use of pass by reference for types marked with
`rustc_pass_by_value`.
The hardest part of this was choosing the new name. The `disallowed_`
part of the name closely matches the following clippy lints:
- `disallowed_macros`
- `disallowed_methods`
- `disallowed_names`
- `disallowed_script_idents`
- `disallowed_types`
The `pass_by_value` part of the name aligns with the following clippy
lints:
- `needless_pass_by_value`
- `needless_pass_by_ref_mut`
- `trivially_copy_pass_by_ref`
- `large_types_passed_by_value` (less so)
`CheckAttrVisitor::check_doc_keyword` checks `#[doc(keyword = "..")]`
attributes to ensure they are on an empty module, and that the value is
a non-empty identifier.
The `rustc::existing_doc_keyword` lint checks these attributes to ensure
that the value is the name of a keyword.
It's silly to have two different checking mechanisms for these
attributes. This commit does the following.
- Changes `check_doc_keyword` to check that the value is the name of a
keyword (avoiding the need for the identifier check, which removes a
dependency on `rustc_lexer`).
- Removes the lint.
- Updates tests accordingly.
There is one hack: the `SelfTy` FIXME case used to used to be handled by
disabling the lint, but now is handled with a special case in
`is_doc_keyword`. That hack will go away if/when the FIXME is fixed.
