Unicode literals implicitly converting to fixed size byte arrays cause incorrect error

contract StringFun {
    function funnyString() public pure returns (bytes10 test) {
        test = unicode"Hello 😃";
    }
}

compiles and is runnable. You can test this on remix.

However, solhint throws an error:

test.sol:6:22: Error: Parse error: extraneous input '"Hello 😃"' expecting ';'

@Drblessing I can't reproduce this, are you sure you're using the latest version of solhint?

[Drblessing]

Oh, thanks for the tip, probably not, I'm using a fresh remix environment and the Solhint plugin, and I'm able to reproduce it. Sorry, I can't find a version number on remix. Should I close this?

[fvictorio]

Yeah, I'd say it's probably the Remix plugin using an outdated version. I'm not sure what's the right repo to report that though. Thanks for clarifying!

Thanks for the help!
