New lint: wildcard pattern in let #4090

Description

@Vlad-Shcherbina

I think there should be a warning about the wildcard pattern in let.
I can't imagine any situation where this makes sense, and there are cases where it's a mistake caused by taking _ for identifier though it's not.

Wrong:

{ let _ = my scope guard or whatever // dropped right away do stuff }

Correct:

{ let _g = my scope guard or whatever do stuff // dropped at the end of the scope }
