Suggest cloning Arc/Rc

[ibraheemdev]

fn main() {
    let x = Arc::new(1);
    foo(x);
    bar(x);
}

fn foo(_: Arc<usize>) {}
fn bar(_: Arc<usize>) {}

error[[E0382]](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/error-index.html#E0382): use of moved value: `x`
 --> src/main.rs:6:9
  |
4 |     let x = Arc::new(1);
  |         - move occurs because `x` has type `std::sync::Arc<usize>`, which does not implement the `Copy` trait
5 |     foo(x);
  |         - value moved here
6 |     bar(x);
  |         ^ value used here after move

The help message could mention that Arc implements Clone. We don't usually suggest cloning values in diagnostics, but for Arc/Rc we probably should.

Another common case (this one is probably harder to suggest a fix for):

fn main() {
    let x = Arc::new(1);
    for _ in 0..4 {
        std::thread::spawn(move || {
            println!("{}", x);
        });
    }
}

@chenyukang make sure to account for Rc as well! :)

This is covered by #103908, could be closed now.

@chenyukang oh! Great to hear, sorry for making you waste your time :-/

There are a couple of improvements I would like to make on top of that merged PR though, which you might be interested in doing: I would like to customize the message depending on the type size (if smaller than lets say a KB do not talk about perf cost), whether the type implements Drop (to mention that the drop guard might change what is being done) and special case Arc and Rc and tell people to clone without any equivocation. We might want to use this ticket to track that work?

Triage: The first case is now handled, but the second case isn't.
