    /// ### What it does
    /// This lint checks for function arguments of type `&String`, `&Vec`,
    /// `&PathBuf`, and `Cow<_>`. 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
    /// 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
    /// fn foo(&Vec<u32>) { .. }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Use instead:
    /// ```ignore
    /// fn foo(&[u32]) { .. }

    /// To be on the conservative side, if there's at least one mutable

    /// immutable reference is unsound as it allows creating multiple live
    /// mutable references to the same object.

    /// This [error](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/39465) actually
    /// lead to an interim Rust release 1.15.1.
    ///
    /// ### Known problems
    /// This pattern is used by memory allocators to allow allocating multiple
    /// objects while returning mutable references to each one. So long as
    /// different mutable references are returned each time such a function may
    /// be safe.
