`()` is normally FFI-unsafe, but is FFI-safe when used as a return type.
It is also desirable that a transparent newtype for `()` is FFI-safe when
used as a return type.
In order to support this, when an type was deemed FFI-unsafe, because of
a `()` type, and was used in return type - then the type was considered
FFI-safe. However, this was the wrong approach - it didn't check that the
`()` was part of a transparent newtype! The consequence of this is that
the presence of a `()` type in a more complex return type would make it
the entire type be considered safe (as long as the `()` type was the
first that the lint found) - which is obviously incorrect.
Instead, this logic is removed, and a unit return type or a transparent
wrapper around a unit is checked for directly for functions and fn-ptrs.
