Suggest adding a type parameter for impls
Add a new suggestion upon encountering an unknown type in a `impl` that suggests adding a new type parameter. This diagnostic suggests to add a new type parameter even though it may be a const parameter, however after adding the parameter and running rustc again a follow up error steers the user to change the type parameter to a const parameter.
```rust
struct X<const C: ()>();
impl X<C> {}
```
suggests
```
error[E0412]: cannot find type `C` in this scope
--> bar.rs:2:8
|
1 | struct X<const C: ()>();
| ------------------------ similarly named struct `X` defined here
2 | impl X<C> {}
| ^
|
help: a struct with a similar name exists
|
2 | impl X<X> {}
| ^
help: you might be missing a type parameter
|
2 | impl<C> X<C> {}
| ^^^
```
After adding a type parameter the code now becomes
```rust
struct X<const C: ()>();
impl<C> X<C> {}
```
and the error now fully steers the user towards the correct code
```
error[E0747]: type provided when a constant was expected
--> bar.rs:2:11
|
2 | impl<C> X<C> {}
| ^
|
help: consider changing this type parameter to be a `const` generic
|
2 | impl<const C: ()> X<C> {}
| ^^^^^^^^^^^
```
