## Support for clippy-driver as a rustc wrapper

Clippy is a popular linting tool for Rust, and is invoked in place of rustc as a
wrapper. Unfortunately it doesn't proxy rustc's output, so we need to have a
small wrapper around it so that Meson can correctly detect the underlying rustc,
but still display clippy
compilers/rust: Add support for clippy Clippy is a compiler wrapper for rust that provides an extra layer of linting. It's quite popular, but unfortunately doesn't provide the output of the compiler that it's wrapping in it's output, so we don't detect that clippy is rustc. This small patch adds a new compiler class (that is the Rustc class with a different id) and the necessary logic to detect that clippy is in fact rustc) Fixes: #8767 4 years ago			`## Support for clippy-driver as a rustc wrapper`
