/// **What it does:** This lint checks for function arguments of type `&String`
/// or `&Vec` unless the references are mutable. It will also suggest you
/// replace `.clone()` calls with the appropriate `.to_owned()`/`to_string()`
/// calls.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** Requiring the argument to be of the specific size
/// makes the function less useful for no benefit; slices in the form of `&[T]`
/// or `&str` usually suffice and can be obtained from other types, too.
///
/// **Known problems:** The lint does not follow data. So if you have an
/// argument `x` and write `let y = x; y.clone()` the lint will not suggest
/// changing that `.clone()` to `.to_owned()`.
///
/// Other functions called from this function taking a `&String` or `&Vec`
/// argument may also fail to compile if you change the argument. Applying
/// this lint on them will fix the problem, but they may be in other crates.
///
/// One notable example of a function that may cause issues, and which cannot
/// easily be changed due to being in the standard library is `Vec::contains`.
/// when called on a `Vec<Vec<T>>`. If a `&Vec` is passed to that method then
/// it will compile, but if a `&[T]` is passed then it will not compile.
///
/// ```ignore
/// fn cannot_take_a_slice(v: &Vec<u8>) -> bool {
/// let vec_of_vecs: Vec<Vec<u8>> = some_other_fn();
///
/// vec_of_vecs.contains(v)
/// }
/// ```
///
/// Also there may be `fn(&Vec)`-typed references pointing to your function.
/// If you have them, you will get a compiler error after applying this lint's
/// suggestions. You then have the choice to undo your changes or change the
/// type of the reference.
///
/// Note that if the function is part of your public interface, there may be
/// other crates referencing it, of which you may not be aware. Carefully
/// deprecate the function before applying the lint suggestions in this case.
///
/// **Example:**
/// ```ignore
/// // Bad
/// fn foo(&Vec<u32>) { .. }
///
/// // Good
/// fn foo(&[u32]) { .. }
/// ```
