Unsized types in required trait methods

[ionicmc-rs]

so this issue is a follow up for #134422 (closed as not planned) to suggest making a lint instead.

What the issue talked about

Rust does not check for T: Sized in required trait methods

trait Foo {
    fn bar(self: Self, x: str);
}

The above code compiles, even though Self and str are both ?Sized

this makes the trait unimplementable

impl Foo for [u8] {
    fn bar(self: Self, x: str) {}
}

Produces:

The size for values of type `[u8]` cannot be known at compile time
The size for values of type `str` cannot be known at compile time

For more information please see the RFC

The RFC may not be accepted, but this issue is mildly severe, so can someone come up with a solution
