Description
If we want to capture part of a single pattern, we can do:
```rust
if let Some(foo_contents) = foo {
// foo_contents binding is valid here
}
// foo_contents binding is not valid here
```
In some cases this forces an extra layer of nesting. It would be nice to be able to do something like the following:
```rust
let Some(foo_contents) = foo else {
// foo_contents binding is not valid here
}
// foo_contents binding is valid here
```
