enum type instead of variant suggestion unification

zackmdavis · zackmdavis · commit 3986c964481a · 2018-12-22T17:40:48.000-08:00
Weirdly, we were deciding between a help note and a structured suggestion based on whether the import candidate span was a dummy—but we weren't using that span in any case! The dummy-ness of the span (which appears to be a matter of this-crate vs. other-crate definition) isn't the right criterion by which we should decide whether it's germane to mention that "there is an enum variant"; instead, let's use the someness of `def` (which is used as the `has_unexpected_resolution` argument to `error_code`). Since `import_candidate_to_paths` has no other callers, we are free to stop returning the span and rename the function. By using `span_suggestions_`, we leverage the max-suggestions output limit already built in to the emitter, thus resolving rust-lang#56028. In the matter of message wording, "you can" is redundant (and perhaps too informal); prefer the imperative.
