Suggest appropriate path when calling associated item on bare types

When looking at the documentation for `std::f32` or `std::str`, for
example, it is easy to get confused and assume `std::f32` and `f32`
are the same thing. Because of this, it is not uncommon to attempt
writing `f32::consts::PI` instead of the correct
`std::f32::consts::PI`. When encountering the former, which results
in an access error due to it being an inexistent path, try to access
the same path under `std`. If this succeeds, this information is
stored for later tweaking of the final E0599 to provide an
appropriate suggestion.

Fix rust-lang#26760, fix rust-lang#46660.
