`borrow_as_ptr` is triggered on generated code

[nazar-pc]

Summary

There is some tricky low-level generated code that is written to compile on older Rust versions and can't use &raw syntax, so this lint should not be triggered if implementation is annotated with #[automatically_derived].

Lint Name

borrow_as_ptr

Reproducer

I triggered this with derive_destructure2 crate (obscure, but fairly popular crate):

#[derive(Debug, destructure)]
pub struct MethodMetadataDecoder<'a, 'metadata> {
    metadata: &'a mut &'metadata [u8],
    container_kind: MethodsContainerKind,
}

I sent a PR to add #[automatically_derived] attribute, which if accepted will benefit from resolving this issue: NobodyXu/derive_destructure2#6
