Provides better help for the resolve failures inside an
impl
if the name matches:Not handling trait method suggestions if in a regular
impl
(as you can see on line 69 of the test), I believe it is possible though.Also, provides a better message when
self
fails to resolve due to being a static method.It's using some unsafe pointers to skip copying the larger structures (which are only used in error conditions); it's likely possible to get it working with lifetimes (all the useful refs should outlive the visitor calls) but I haven't really figured that out for this case. (can switch to copying code if wanted)
Closes #2356.
