Auto merge of #129249 - estebank:useless-into, r=<try>

[Experimental] `<T as Into<T>>::into` lint

Running crater to see how common that pattern is. The Lint would have to be at most warn-by-default because there are a handful of cases detected that are actually perfectly reasonable (`type` aliases with per-platform `cfg`, or macros) which are now at best half-heartedly handled.

I've detected a handful of cases where we're calling `.into()` unnecessarily in the `rustc` codebase as well, and changed those.
