#![deny(rust_2018_idioms)]

struct Bar<'a> { x: &'a u8 }

struct Foo(Bar);
error: hidden lifetime parameters in types are deprecated
 --> src/lib.rs:6:12
  |
6 | struct Foo(Bar);
  |            ^^^- help: indicate the anonymous lifetime: `<'_>`
  |

Except that using '_ is not allowed in the type definition...

The elided-lifetimes-in-path lint (part of our suite of Rust 2018
idiom lints which we are hoping to promote to Warn status) was firing
with an illegal suggestion to write an anonymous lifetime in a
struct/item declaration (where we don't allow it). The linting code
was already deciding whether to act on the basis of a `ParamMode`
enum, indicating whether the present path-segment was part of an
expression, or anywhere else. The present case seemed to be part of
the "anywhere else", and yet meriting different rules as far as the
lint was concerned, so it seemed expedient to introduce a new enum
member. We yank out a `TyKind::Path` arm into its own method so that
we can call it with our new `ParamMode` specifically when lowering
struct fields. (The alternative strategy of changing the signature of
`lower_ty` to take a `ParamMode` would be inelegant given that most of
the `TyKind` match arm bodies therein don't concern themselves with
`ParamMode`.)

Resolves rust-lang#61124.

in which we decline to suggest the anonymous lifetime in declarations

We yank out `TyKind::Path` arm into its own method so that we can call it with our new `ParamMode` specifically when lowering struct fields—one would have hoped to think of something more elegant than this, but it definitely beats changing the signature of `lower_ty` to take a `ParamMode`!

Resolves #61124.
