.read().ok() does not trigger unused_io_amount warning

[VictorKoenders]

Lint name: unused_io_amount

I tried this code:

fn test(file: &str) -> Option<()> {
    let mut reader = std::fs::File::open(file).ok()?;
    let mut result = [0u8; 0];
    // reader.read(&mut result).unwrap(); // clippy correctly warns about this
    reader.read(&mut result).ok()?; // clippy does not warn about this
    Some(())
}
<code>

I expected to see this happen: explanation

If you use reader.read(&mut result).unwrap(), clippy correctly triggers error "read amount is not handled. Use Read::read_exact instead"

Instead, this happened: explanation

Appending .ok()? consumes the error, but clippy does not report the unused_io_amount warning any more.
