Show the unused type for unused_results lint

Browse source 
I think it's helpful to know what type was unused when looking at these
warnings. The type will likely determine whether the result *should* be
used, or whether it should just be ignored.

Including the type also matches the behavior of the `must_use` lint:
unused `SomeType` that must be used.
