Auto merge of #104688 - flip1995:clippyup, r=Manishearth,flip1995
Update Clippy

r? `@Manishearth`

Sorry for taking so long. There were so many blockers and so little time. This situation should be mitigated with #104007 in the future.

-### What it does
-Checks for the result of a `&self`-taking `as_ptr` being cast to a mutable pointer
-
-### Why is this bad?
-Since `as_ptr` takes a `&self`, the pointer won't have write permissions unless interior
-mutability is used, making it unlikely that having it as a mutable pointer is correct.
-
-### Example
-```
-let string = String::with_capacity(1);
-let ptr = string.as_ptr() as *mut u8;
-unsafe { ptr.write(4) }; // UNDEFINED BEHAVIOUR
-```
-Use instead:
-```
-let mut string = String::with_capacity(1);
-let ptr = string.as_mut_ptr();
-unsafe { ptr.write(4) };
-```
