new lint: Returning unit from closures expecting Ord
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This lint catches cases where the last statement of a closure expecting
an instance of Ord has a trailing semi-colon. It compiles since the
closure ends up return () which also implements Ord but causes
unexpected results in cases such as sort_by_key.

Fixes #5080

reprise: rebase, update and address all concerns

/// **Why is this bad?** Likely, returning the unit type is unintentional, and

/// it doesn't cause a compilation error.
/// This is the same reasoning behind the unit_cmp lint.

/// ```rust
/// let mut twins = vec!((1,1), (2,2));
