This started with a patch that enabled `clippy::ptr_as_ptr`. Benno Lossin suggested I also look into `clippy::ptr_cast_constness` and I discovered `clippy::as_ptr_cast_mut`. This series now enables all 3 lints. It also enables `clippy::as_underscore` which ensures other pointer casts weren't missed. The first commit reduces the need for pointer casts and is shared with another series[1]. The final patch also enables pointer provenance lints and fixes violations. See that commit message for details. The build system portion of that commit is pretty messy but I couldn't find a better way to convincingly ensure that these lints were applied globally. Suggestions would be very welcome.
