Allow types (with lifetimes/generics) in impl_lint_pass

cc https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/pull/5279#discussion_r430790267

This allows to implement `LintPass` for types with lifetimes and/or generics. The only thing, I'm not sure of is the `LintPass::name` function, which now includes the lifetime(s) (which will be `'_` most of the time) in the name returned for the lint pass, if it exists. But I don't think that this should be a problem, since the `LintPass::name` is never used for output for the user (?).
