To be precise, this rule applies to new-expressions that directly use one
of the "replaceable global allocation functions", which both includes some
placement forms (e.g. `new (std::nothrow) double[10]`) and excludes some
non-placement forms (e.g. `new MyClass` where `MyClass` declares an
`operator new`).
