### What it does
Suggests the use of `const` in functions and methods where possible.
### Why is this bad?
Not having the function const prevents callers of the function from being const as well.
### Known problems
Const functions are currently still being worked on, with some features only being available
on nightly. This lint does not consider all edge cases currently and the suggestions may be
incorrect if you are using this lint on stable.
Also, the lint only runs one pass over the code. Consider these two non-const functions:
```
fn a() -> i32 {
0
}
fn b() -> i32 {
a()
}
```
When running Clippy, the lint will only suggest to make `a` const, because `b` at this time
can't be const as it calls a non-const function. Making `a` const and running Clippy again,
will suggest to make `b` const, too.
### Example
```
fn new() -> Self {
Self { random_number: 42 }
}
```
Could be a const fn:
```
const fn new() -> Self {
Self { random_number: 42 }
}
```
