A bunch of helpful lints to avoid common pitfalls in Rust

/// **What it does:** This lint checks for transmutes to the original type of the object. It is `Warn` by default.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** Readability. The code tricks people into thinking that the original value was of some other type.
///
/// **Known problems:** None.
///
/// **Example:** `core::intrinsics::transmute(t)` where the result type is the same as `t`'s.
