don't trigger `indexing_slicing` if the vector is infallible

[amab8901]

Summary

there's many cases where a vector is clearly infallible but the indexing_slicing lint still complains that it might fall. Would be nice if clippy better recognize cases that are deterministically known to be infallible

Lint Name

indexing_slicing

Reproducer

I tried this code:

fn main() {
    let vec = vec();

    dbg!(vec[1]);
}

fn vec() -> Vec<i32> {
    vec![0, 0, 0]
}

I saw this happen:

indexing may panic
consider using `.get(n)` or `.get_mut(n)` instead
for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/rust-1.93.0/index.html#indexing_slicing
requested on the command line with `-W clippy::indexing-slicing

I expected to see this happen:
silence
