Fix false positive in useless_attribute with redundant_imports (rust-lang#15318)

Fix false positive in `useless_attribute` with `redundant_imports`

Add `redundant_imports` to the list of allowed lints on use items to
prevent
`useless_attribute` from triggering false positives when
`#[expect(redundant_imports)]`
or similar attributes are used on use statements.

fixes rust-lang#15316

changelog: [`useless_attribute`]: fix false positive when using
`#[expect(redundant_imports)]` and similar lint attributes on `use`
statements
