/// Checks for usages of the `ref` keyword.
///
/// ### Why restrict this?
/// The `ref` keyword can be confusing for people unfamiliar with it, and often
/// it is more concise to use `&` instead.
///
/// ### Example
/// ```no_run
/// let opt = Some(5);
/// if let Some(ref foo) = opt {}
/// ```
/// Use instead:
/// ```no_run
/// let opt = Some(5);
/// if let Some(foo) = &opt {}
/// ```
