/// Error returned when executing/parsing `wesl metadata` fails.

/// # Note about Backtraces
///
/// This error type does not contain backtraces, but each error variant
/// comes from _one_ specific place, so it's not really needed for the
/// inside of this crate. If you need a backtrace down to, but not inside
/// of, a failed call of `wesl-metadata` you can do one of multiple thinks:
///
/// 1. Convert it to a `failure::Error` (possible using the `?` operator),
///    which is similar to a `Box<::std::error::Error + 'static + Send  + Sync>`.
/// 2. Have appropriate variants in your own error type. E.g. you could wrap
///    a `failure::Context<Error>` or add a `failure::Backtrace` field (which
///    is empty if `RUST_BACKTRACE` is not set, so it's simple to use).
/// 3. You still can place a failure based error into a `error_chain` if you
///    really want to. (Either through `foreign_links` or by making it a field
///    value of a `ErrorKind` variant).
