`unused_parens` lint suggestion also removes attributes on inner expression with `feature(stmt_expr_attributes)`.

[zachs18]

I tried this code:

#![feature(stmt_expr_attributes)]
#![allow(unused_must_use)]

pub fn foo() -> impl Fn() {
    let _ = (#[inline] || println!("Hello!"));
    (#[inline] || println!("Hello!"));
    (#[inline] || println!("Hello!"))
}

I expected to see this happen: The unused_parens warning fires on all three lines of foo, and the suggestions should only suggest removing the parentheses, not the attribute also.

Instead, this happened: The unused_parens fires on the first and last lines of foo, and the suggestion also removes the #[inline].
No unused_parens warning fires on the second line (#[inline] || println!("Hello!")); (but this is probably a separate issue, unrelated to attributes; it happens even when the attribute is removed; maybe unused_must_use overrides it or something).

Requires use of #![feature(stmt_expr_attributes)], otherwise the #[inline] is not legal in that position (though note that the unused_parens warning and suggestion is the same on stable, there's just an error[E0658]: attributes on expressions are experimental first).

The issue is not specific to closures and #[inline], but that was the simplest example of a reasonable attribute-on-expression I thought of.
