Auto merge of #7692 - workingjubilee:float-cmp-not-wrong, r=giraffate
Demote float_cmp to pedantic
See this issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/7666
This is one of the most frequently suppressed lints. It is deny-by-default. It is not actually clearly wrong, as there are many instances where direct float comparison is actually desirable. It is only after operating on floats that they may lose precision, and that depends greatly on the operation. As most correctness lints have a much higher standard of error, being based on hard and fast binary logic, this should not be amongst them.
A linter is not a substitute for observing the math carefully and running tests, and doing the desirable thing is even more likely to lead one to want exact comparisons.

Stop suggesting a float truncation that is not shorter
Fixes #7721.
Previously Clippy would say that a number has excessive precision even if it has the minimum possible precision for the floating point value that it corresponds to.

Auto merge of #7704 - camsteffen:pedantic-occasional, r=Manishearth
Tweak pedantic description for occasional FPs
changelog: none
Okay this is getting a bit picky (you might even say pedantic). I think we need to be careful not use the pedantic category as cover-all for lints with any amount of false positives. Lints with a high degree of FPs should be nursery or restriction IMO. If the pedantic category were to yield, say hypothetically, over 50% FPs, it would just be too annoying to use at all (to be sure, "too picky for me" is not a FP).

Retry on some download errors in lintcheck
I'm currently on spotty wifi right now. It is shocking the number of things that break when you lose connection for a few seconds. Some 500 errors should probably also be retried, but this fixes my issue.
Auto merge of #7690 - Jarcho:while_loop_by_ref, r=xFrednet
Change `while_let_on_iterator` suggestion to use `by_ref()`
It came up in the discussion #7659 that suggesting `iter.by_ref()` is a clearer suggestion than `&mut iter`. I personally think they're equivalent, but if `by_ref()` is clearer to people then that should be the suggestion.

Auto merge of #7671 - dtolnay-contrib:singlecharnames, r=xFrednet
Downgrade many_single_char_names to pedantic
As suggested by `@flip1995` in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/7666#issuecomment-918993215, by today's standards this lint would be considered `pedantic`.
This is one of the most widely suppressed Clippy lints on crates.io according to https://github.com/dtolnay/noisy-clippy.
In my opinion this lint is just too domain specific for Clippy to have reliable visibility into. Sure there are some cases where the author is just being lazy and could use a kick in the butt, but we're still left with an enormous number of suppressions where single chars are the most appropriate name. For example in the context of colors, a function using `h`, `s`, `l`, `r`, `g`, `b` is 100% sensible and spelling all those out is silly, but it's past the default lint threshold.

Auto merge of #7640 - kneasle:mut-key-false-positive, r=camsteffen
Improve accuracy of `mut_key`
Fixes #6745.
Whilst writing the tests for this, I noticed what I believe is a false negative (the code in `@xFrednet's` [comment](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/6745#issuecomment-909658267) doesn't trigger the lint). Currently the tests contain a case for this (which is blatantly ignored), but I'm not at all sure how to implement this (since the lint currently behaves completely differently for ADTs). I'm not sure what should be done - on the one hand the extra test cases are misleading, but on the other hand they don't cause much harm and would save effort for anyone fixing that false negative.

Auto merge of #7646 - camsteffen:relative-target, r=flip1995
Target directory cleanup
changelog: none
* .cargo/config now has `target-dir` specified so that it is inherited by child projects. The target directory needs to be shared with clippy_dev, but not necessarily at the project root. (cc #7625)
* Uses `std::env::current_exe` (and its parent directories) whenever possible
* `CLIPPY_DRIVER_PATH` and `TARGET_LIBS` are no longer required from rustc bootstrap (but `HOST_LIBS` still is). These can be removed from the rustc side after merging.
* `CLIPPY_DOGFOOD` and the separate target directory are removed. This was originally added to mitigate #7343.

Add new lint `iter_not_returning_iterator`
Add new lint [`iter_not_returning_iterator`] to detect method `iter()` or `iter_mut()` returning a type not implementing `Iterator`

Allow giving reasons for `disallowed_methods`
Fixes #7609.
This permits writing the config for `disallowed-methods` as either a list of strings (like before) or a list of tables, where each table gives the path to the disallowed method and an optional reason for why the method is disallowed.

Auto merge of #7638 - xFrednet:7569-avoid-indexing-in-clippy, r=Manishearth
Avoid slice indexing in Clippy (down with the ICEs)
While working on #7569 I got about 23 lint reports where we can avoid slice indexing by destructing the slice early. This is a preparation PR to avoid fixing them in the lint PR. (The implementation already takes about 300 lines without tests :sweat_smile:). Either way, this should hopefully be easy to review :upside_down_face:
Provide `layout_of` automatically (given tcx + param_env + error handling).
After #88337, there's no longer any uses of `LayoutOf` within `rustc_target` itself, so I realized I could move the trait to `rustc_middle::ty::layout` and redesign it a bit.
This is similar to #88338 (and supersedes it), but at no ergonomic loss, since there's no funky `C: LayoutOf<Ty = Ty>` -> `Ty: TyAbiInterface<C>` generic `impl` chain, and each `LayoutOf` still corresponds to one `impl` (of `LayoutOfHelpers`) for the specific context.
After this PR, this is what's needed to get `trait LayoutOf` (with the `layout_of` method) implemented on some context type:
* `TyCtxt`, via `HasTyCtxt`
* `ParamEnv`, via `HasParamEnv`
* a way to transform `LayoutError`s into the desired error type
* an error type of `!` can be paired with having `cx.layout_of(...)` return `TyAndLayout` *without* `Result<...>` around it, such as used by codegen
* this is done through a new `LayoutOfHelpers` trait (and so is specifying the type of `cx.layout_of(...)`)
When going through this path (and not bypassing it with a manual `impl` of `LayoutOf`), the end result is that only the error case can be customized, the query itself and the success paths are guaranteed to be uniform.
(**EDIT**: just noticed that because of the supertrait relationship, you cannot actually implement `LayoutOf` yourself, the blanket `impl` fully covers all possible context types that could ever implement it)
Part of the motivation for this shape of API is that I've been working on querifying `FnAbi::of_*`, and what I want/need to introduce for that looks a lot like the setup in this PR - in particular, it's harder to express the `FnAbi` methods in `rustc_target`, since they're much more tied to `rustc` concepts.
Auto merge of #7627 - xFrednet:0000-updating-issue-templates-again, r=llogiq
Updating issue templates again for rustbot
It turns out that our current issue template can sometimes trigger a rustbot error message, as can be seen in [#7626](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues/7626). I originally tested this in #7599, but it's apparently a bit inconsistent. This PR adds backticks to the commands, as correctly suggested by `@mikerite` in the comments. (Thank you!)
