    /// Checks for methods with high cognitive complexity.
    ///
    /// ### Why is this bad?
    /// Methods of high cognitive complexity tend to be hard to
    /// both read and maintain. Also LLVM will tend to optimize small methods better.
    ///
    /// ### Known problems
    /// Sometimes it's hard to find a way to reduce the
    /// complexity.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    /// You'll see it when you get the warning.
