fixes #3594

::std::panic!();
// `panic!` would be enough here but we would then get a warning on `clippy::missing_panics_doc`
// SAFETY: this branch is never reached.
unsafe { ::std::hint::unreachable_unchecked() }

I don't like emitting unsafe from the macros for any reason, honestly. Does unreachable!() emit the same lint warning?

Alternatively, just #[allow] the lint.

This is effectively identical.
The compiler should be able to figure out that anything in if false {...} is unreachable ^^

Though I think clippy should also alert for this (it is still a panic just with a better name. If clippy is not, this is a false negative).

Suggested change
unsafe { ::std::hint::unreachable_unchecked() }
#[allow(clippy::missing_panics_doc)]
::std::unreachable!();
