Research direction

Start by locating the should_implement_trait lint and its tests; the issue names no files or test paths. Compare the requested ToOwned and FromStr behavior with the linked servo/rust-url#286 discussion. Done means the lint covers both traits and recommends renaming parse methods to from_str where appropriate.
