new lint: `unnecessary_fallible_conversions`

Closes #11577

A new lint that looks for calls such as `i64::try_from(1i32)` and suggests `i64::from(1i32)`. See lint description (and linked issue) for more details for why.

There's a tiny bit of overlap with the `useless_conversion` lint, in that the other one warns `T::try_from(T)` (i.e., fallibly converting to the same type), so this lint ignores cases like `i32::try_from(1i32)` to avoid emitting two warnings for the same expression.

Also, funnily enough, with this one exception, this lint would warn on exactly every case in the `useless_conversion_try` ui test that `useless_conversion` didn't cover (but never two warnings at the same time), which is neat. I did add an `#![allow]` though since we don't want interleaved warnings from multiple lints in the same uitest.
