/// `Error` is a trait representing the basic expectations for error values,
/// i.e., values of type `E` in [`Result<T, E>`]. Errors must describe
/// themselves through the [`Display`] and [`Debug`] traits, and may provide
/// cause chain information:
///
/// The [`source`] method is generally used when errors cross "abstraction
/// boundaries". If one module must report an error that is caused by an error
/// from a lower-level module, it can allow access to that error via the
/// [`source`] method. This makes it possible for the high-level module to
/// provide its own errors while also revealing some of the implementation for
/// debugging via [`source`] chains.
///
