ptr_arg false positive on ToOwned::clone_into()

[kpreid]

Summary

ptr_arg does not recognize ToOwned::clone_into() as a call that requires &mut String or &mut Vec<T>, and incorrectly suggests changing to &mut str or &mut [T].

Lint Name

ptr_arg

Reproducer

I tried this code:

pub fn t1(mut_string: &mut String, ref_str: &str) {
    ref_str.clone_into(mut_string);
}
pub fn t2(mut_vec: &mut Vec<u8>, ref_slice: &[u8]) {
    ref_slice.clone_into(mut_vec);
}

I saw this happen:

warning: writing `&mut String` instead of `&mut str` involves a new object where a slice will do

The suggestions do not compile.

I expected to see this happen: No warnings, since clone_into requires a mutable reference to the owned and resizable type.
