Allowing / Denying lints

To allow or deny a lint from the command line you can use cargo clippy -- with:

    -W / --warn [LINT]       Set lint warnings

    -D / --deny [LINT]       Set lint denied

You can use tool lints to allow or deny lints from your code, e.g.:

    #[allow(clippy::needless_lifetimes)]
