Fix invalid `mut T` suggestion for `&mut T` in missing lifetime error

close: rust-lang/rust#150077

When suggesting to return an owned value instead of a borrowed one, the diagnostic was only removing `&` instead of `&mut `, resulting in invalid syntax like `mut T`. This PR fixes the span calculation to properly cover the entire `&mut ` prefix.
