## What's Changed
* Update smoke test to verify all Clippy and rustc lints by @MitMaro in https://github.com/bitflags/bitflags/pull/374
## New Contributors
# 2.3.3
## Changes to `-=`
The `-=` operator was incorrectly changed to truncate bits that didn't correspond to valid flags in `2.3.0`. This has
been fixed up so it once again behaves the same as `-` and `difference`.
## Changes to `!`
The `!` operator previously called `Self::from_bits_truncate`, which would truncate any bits that only partially
overlapped with a valid flag. It will now use `bits & Self::all().bits()`, so any bits that overlap any bits
specified by any flag will be respected. This is unlikely to have any practical implications, but enables defining
a flag like `const ALL = !0` as a way to signal that any bit pattern is a known set of flags.
## Changes to formatting
Zero-valued flags will never be printed. You'll either get `0x0` for empty flags using debug formatting, or the
set of flags with zero-valued flags omitted for others.
Composite flags will no longer be redundantly printed if there are extra bits to print at the end that don't correspond
to a valid flag.

## Changes to `serde` serialization
**⚠️ NOTE ⚠️** This release changes the default serialization you'll get if you `#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]`
on your generated flags types. It will now use a formatted string for human-readable formats and the underlying bits
type for compact formats.
To keep the old behavior, see the [`bitflags-serde-legacy`](https://github.com/KodrAus/bitflags-serde-legacy) library.

## How to update your code to use associated constants
Assuming the following structure definition:
```rust
bitflags! {
struct Something: u8 {
const FOO = 0b01,
const BAR = 0b10
}
}
```
In 0.9 and older you could do:
```rust
let x = FOO.bits | BAR.bits;
```
Now you must use:
```rust
let x = Something::FOO.bits | Something::BAR.bits;
```
