Related to #57994, as one of the presented cases can lead to code like

Make `unused_allocation` lint against `Box::new` too
Previously it only linted against `box` syntax, which likely won't ever be stabilized, which is pretty useless. Even now I'm not sure if it's a meaningful lint, but it's at least something 🤷
This means that code like the following will be linted against:
```rust
Box::new([1, 2, 3]).len();
f(&Box::new(1)); // where f : &i32 -> ()
```
The lint works by checking if a `Box::new` (or `box`) expression has an a borrow adjustment, meaning that the code that first stores the box in a variable won't be linted against:
```rust
let boxed = Box::new([1, 2, 3]); // no lint
boxed.len();
```
impl DispatchFromDyn for Cell and UnsafeCell
After some fruitful discussion on [Internals](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/impl-dispatchfromdyn-for-cell-2/16520) here's my first PR to rust-lang/rust 🎉
Please let me know if there's something I missed.
This adds `DispatchFromDyn` impls for `Cell`, `UnsafeCell` and `SyncUnsafeCell`.
An existing test is also expanded to test the `Cell` impl (which requires the `UnsafeCell` impl)
The different `RefCell` types can not implement `DispatchFromDyn` since they have more than one (non ZST) field.
**Edit:**
### What:
These changes allow one to make types like `MyRc`(code below), to be object safe method receivers after implementing `DispatchFromDyn` and `Deref` for them.
This allows for code like this:
```rust
struct MyRc<T: ?Sized>(Cell<NonNull<RcBox<T>>>);
/* impls for DispatchFromDyn, CoerceUnsized and Deref for MyRc*/
trait Trait {
fn foo(self: MyRc<Self>);
}
let impls_trait = ...;
let rc = MyRc::new(impls_trait) as MyRc<dyn Trait>;
rc.foo();
```
Note: `Cell` and `UnsafeCell` won't directly become valid method receivers since they don't implement `Deref`. Making use of these changes requires a wrapper type and nightly features.
### Why:
A custom pointer type with interior mutability allows one to store extra information in the pointer itself.
These changes allow for such a type to be a method receiver.
### Examples:
My use case is a cycle aware custom `Rc` implementation that when dropping a cycle marks some references dangling.
On the [forum](https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/impl-dispatchfromdyn-for-cell/14762/8) andersk mentioned that they track if a `Gc` reference is rooted with an extra bit in the reference itself.
