Rollup merge of #108230 - LittleFall:enhance/warning, r=estebank

Convert a hard-warning about named static lifetimes into lint "unused_lifetimes"

Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/96956.

Some changes are ported from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/98079, thanks to jeremydavis519.

r? `@estebank` `@petrochenkov`

Any feedback is appreciated!
