    /// ### What it does
    /// Checks for `\0` escapes in string and byte literals that look like octal
    /// character escapes in C.
    ///
    /// ### Why is this bad?
    ///
    /// C and other languages support octal character escapes in strings, where
    /// a backslash is followed by up to three octal digits. For example, `\033`
    /// stands for the ASCII character 27 (ESC). Rust does not support this
    /// notation, but has the escape code `\0` which stands for a null
    /// byte/character, and any following digits do not form part of the escape
    /// sequence. Therefore, `\033` is not a compiler error but the result may
    /// be surprising.
    ///
    /// ### Known problems
    /// The actual meaning can be the intended one. `\x00` can be used in these
    /// cases to be unambiguous.
    ///
    /// The lint does not trigger for format strings in `print!()`, `write!()`
    /// and friends since the string is already preprocessed when Clippy lints
    /// can see it.
    ///
    /// # Example
    /// ```rust
    /// let one = "\033[1m Bold? \033[0m";  // \033 intended as escape
    /// let two = "\033\0";                 // \033 intended as null-3-3
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Use instead:
    /// ```rust
    /// let one = "\x1b[1mWill this be bold?\x1b[0m";
    /// let two = "\x0033\x00";
    /// ```
