[VOTE] Marking return values as important (#[\NoDiscard])

Hey everyone,

The voting has just ended.

The #[\NoDiscard] attribute was accepted with 18 (Yes) to 4 (No) votes
(82%).
The (void) cast was accepted with 18 (Yes) to 2 (No) votes (90%).
Neither vote is a subset of the other, some voters only voted for the
#[\NoDiscard] attribute itself and some only voted for the (void) cast.

Tim will take care of finalizing the implementation in the coming days.

Thank you to everyone for your participation in the discussion.

Kind regards,
Volker
