The [`allow_attributes`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/#allow_attributes) lint disallows using `#[allow]`, forcing to use `#[except]` instead. `#[except]` is generally better than `#[allow]` because `#[expect]` errors if the expectation is unfulfilled, meaning that we don't have stale annotations floating around the codebase. This also fixes the violations by: - Removing `#[allow]` completely where it is not needed - Fixing the underlying violation, when this can be done trivially, and/or where we cannot use `allow` becuase the lint only triggers on some compilation targets - Replacing `#[allow]` with `#[expect]` Resolves [#1256](#1256) Resolves [RUST-267](https://linear.app/getsentry/issue/RUST-267)
