misc-move-const-arg
===================

The check warns

  - if ``std::move()`` is called with a constant argument,
  - if ``std::move()`` is called with an argument of a trivially-copyable type,
    or
  - if the result of ``std::move()`` is passed as a const reference argument.

In all three cases, the check will suggest a fix that removes the
``std::move()``.

Here are examples of each of the three cases:

.. code:: c++

  const string s;
  return std::move(s);  // Warning: std::move of the const variable has no effect

  int x;
  return std::move(x);  // Warning: std::move of the variable of a trivially-copyable type has no effect

  void f(const string &s);
  string s;
  f(std::move(s));  // Warning: passing result of std::move as a const reference argument; no move will actually happen
