`unused_extern_crates` lint trigged after return of `extern crate` syntax for non-Cargo crates (`alloc`, etc.)

[sanmai-NL]

Fallout from #54116, which fixed the syntax for imports from extern crates, a temporary solution to #53166.

This code:

extern crate alloc;

Leads to an unused_extern_crates lint failure.

error: `extern crate` is not idiomatic in the new edition

@eddyb was #54116 merged without a solution of what to do for this in Cargo?

[eddyb]

We should at least fix the lint so it doesn't trigger in the cases where use foo; doesn't work.
