/// **What it does:** The lint checks for `if`-statements appearing in loops
/// that contain a `continue` statement in either their main blocks or their
/// `else`-blocks, when omitting the `else`-block possibly with some
/// rearrangement of code can make the code easier to understand.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** Having explicit `else` blocks for `if` statements
/// containing `continue` in their THEN branch adds unnecessary branching and
/// nesting to the code. Having an else block containing just `continue` can
/// also be better written by grouping the statements following the whole `if`
/// statement within the THEN block and omitting the else block completely.
///
/// **Known problems:** None
///
/// **Example:**
/// ```rust
/// while condition() {
///     update_condition();
///     if x {
///         // ...
///     } else {
///         continue;
///     }
///     println!("Hello, world");
/// }
/// ```
///
/// Could be rewritten as
///
/// ```rust
/// while condition() {
///     update_condition();
///     if x {
///         // ...
///         println!("Hello, world");
///     }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// As another example, the following code
///
/// ```rust
/// loop {
///     if waiting() {
///         continue;
///     } else {
///         // Do something useful
///     }
