Confirmed on latest stable (1.91.1), cargo clippy command is not aware about its own lints.
These three lints are very new. All of them were merged in the past week: #15865, #15606, #15215.
The main rust-lang/rust repo will periodically sync with the clippy repo. Once that is done, the clippy lint will become available on nightly rust.
The previous time this was done is https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/149425

Are there any alternative sources of clippy lints information that would accurately match the lints supported by the current version of clippy? I discovered this when I was writing a test that checks whether a Cargo.toml in my project has all the lints or not
You can choose which version of clippy to check from the list at https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/ but I don't think you can get the latest information for nightly rust.
It's a very bad idea to blindly enable all lints though. Some lints are meant for really specific situations, and some of those lints will even actively contradict each other.
clippy-driver -W help can be used to list all the lints of the current toolchain
