Obviously, this is out of scope for this PR, but I'm curious why this PR is implemented as a HIR analysis instead of a MIR analysis? We have a dataflow framework for MIR that can answer these kinds of questions ("do we definitely know the value of this variable at this point in the program?") and it seems like it would be much simpler to write this as a MIR pass.

The
expr_or_init
method came from clippy, same forinvalid_from_utf8
which also came from clippy and both of them were using the HIR, so there is a bit a historical precedent.As for implementing the lint as a MIR lint, it could probably be done, but I also remember MIR lints being more tricky to do, in part because MIR is much less like surface Rust than MIR is but also because the cargo check/build difference of MIR lints makes MIR lints less attractive; I don't know if it would apply here. I will have to check it.
