Provide more context on `Fn` closure modifying binding
When modifying a binding from inside of an `Fn` closure, point at the binding definition and suggest using an `std::sync` type that would allow the code to compile.
```
error[E0594]: cannot assign to `counter`, as it is a captured variable in a `Fn` closure
--> f703.rs:6:9
|
4 | let mut counter = 0;
| ----------- `counter` declared here, outside the closure
5 | let x: Box<dyn Fn()> = Box::new(|| {
| -- in this closure
6 | counter += 1;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^ cannot assign
|
= help: consider using `std::sync::atomic::AtomicI32` instead, which allows for multiple threads to access and modify the value
```
This provides more context on where the binding being modified was declared, and more importantly, guides newcomers towards `std::sync` when encountering cases like these.
When the requirement comes from an argument of a local function, we already tell the user that they might want to change from `Fn` to `FnMut`:
```
error[E0594]: cannot assign to `x`, as it is a captured variable in a `Fn` closure
--> $DIR/borrow-immutable-upvar-mutation.rs:21:27
|
LL | fn to_fn<A: std::marker::Tuple, F: Fn<A>>(f: F) -> F {
| - change this to accept `FnMut` instead of `Fn`
...
LL | let mut x = 0;
| ----- `x` declared here, outside the closure
LL | let _f = to_fn(|| x = 42);
| ----- -- ^^^^^^ cannot assign
| | |
| | in this closure
| expects `Fn` instead of `FnMut`
|
= help: consider using `std::sync::atomic::AtomicI32` instead, which allows for multiple threads to access and modify the value
```
We might want to avoid the `help` in this case.

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
