+/// Finds attributes in sequences of attributes by pattern matching.
+///
+/// A little like `matches` but for attributes.
+///
+/// ```rust,ignore (illustrative)
+/// // finds the repr attribute
+/// if let Some(r) = find_attr!(attrs, AttributeKind::Repr(r) => r) {
+///
+/// }
+///
+/// // checks if one has matched
+/// if find_attr!(attrs, AttributeKind::Repr(_)) {
+///
+/// }
+/// ```
+///
+/// Often this requires you to first end up with a list of attributes.
+/// A common way to get those is through `tcx.get_all_attrs(did)`
