Rollup merge of #135865 - zachs18:maybe_report_similar_assoc_fn_more, r=compiler-errors
For E0223, suggest associated functions that are similar to the path, even if the base type has multiple inherent impl blocks. Currently, the "help: there is an associated function with a similar name `from_utf8`" suggestion for `String::from::utf8` is only given if `String` has exactly one inherent `impl` item. This PR makes the suggestion be emitted even if the base type has multiple inherent `impl` items. Example: ```rust struct Foo; impl Foo { fn bar_baz() {} } impl Foo {} // load-bearing fn main() { Foo::bar::baz; } ``` Nightly/stable output: ```rust error[E0223]: ambiguous associated type --> f.rs:7:5 | 7 | Foo::bar::baz; | ^^^^^^^^ | help: if there were a trait named `Example` with associated type `bar` implemented for `Foo`, you could use the fully-qualified path | 7 | <Foo as Example>::bar::baz; | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ error: aborting due to 1 previous error For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0223`. ``` Output with this PR, or without the load-bearing empty impl on nightly/stable: ```rust error[E0223]: ambiguous associated type --> f.rs:7:5 | 7 | Foo::bar::baz; | ^^^^^^^^ | help: there is an associated function with a similar name: `bar_baz` | 7 | Foo::bar_baz; | ~~~~~~~ error: aborting due to 1 previous error For more information about this error, try `rustc --explain E0223`. ``` Ideally, this suggestion would also work for non-ADT types like ~~`str::char::indices`~~ (edit: latest commit makes this work with primitives) or `<dyn Any>::downcast::mut_unchecked`, but that seemed to be a harder change. `@rustbot` label +A-diagnostics
