/// ### What it does
/// Checks assertions without a custom panic message.
///
/// ### Why is this bad?
/// Without a good custom message, it'd be hard to understand what went wrong when the assertion fails.
/// A good custom message should be more about why the failure of the assertion is problematic
/// and not what is failed because the assertion already conveys that.
///
/// Although the same reasoning applies to testing functions, this lint ignores them as they would be too noisy.
/// Also, in most cases understanding the test failure would be easier
/// compared to understanding a complex invariant distributed around the codebase.
///
/// ### Known problems
/// This lint cannot check the quality of the custom panic messages.
/// Hence, you can suppress this lint simply by adding placeholder messages
/// like "assertion failed". However, we recommend coming up with good messages
/// that provide useful information instead of placeholder messages that
/// don't provide any extra information.
///
/// ### Example
/// ```no_run
/// # struct Service { ready: bool }
/// fn call(service: Service) {
/// assert!(service.ready);
/// }
/// ```
/// Use instead:
/// ```no_run
/// # struct Service { ready: bool }
/// fn call(service: Service) {
/// assert!(service.ready, "`service.poll_ready()` must be called first to ensure that service is ready to receive requests");
/// }
/// ```
