    /// ### What it does
    /// Checks for large size differences between variants on
    /// `enum`s.
    ///
    /// ### Why is this bad?
    /// Enum size is bounded by the largest variant. Having one
    /// large variant can penalize the memory layout of that enum.
    ///
    /// ### Known problems
    /// This lint obviously cannot take the distribution of
    /// variants in your running program into account. It is possible that the
    /// smaller variants make up less than 1% of all instances, in which case
    /// the overhead is negligible and the boxing is counter-productive. Always
    /// measure the change this lint suggests.
    ///
    /// For types that implement `Copy`, the suggestion to `Box` a variant's
    /// data would require removing the trait impl. The types can of course
    /// still be `Clone`, but that is worse ergonomically. Depending on the
    /// use case it may be possible to store the large data in an auxiliary
    /// structure (e.g. Arena or ECS).
    ///
    /// The lint will ignore the impact of generic types to the type layout by
    /// assuming every type parameter is zero-sized. Depending on your use case,
    /// this may lead to a false positive.
    ///
    /// ### Example
    /// ```rust
    /// enum Test {
    ///     A(i32),
    ///     B([i32; 8000]),
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// Use instead:
    /// ```rust
    /// // Possibly better
    /// enum Test2 {
    ///     A(i32),
    ///     B(Box<[i32; 8000]>),
    /// }
    /// ```
