Description

For example, for this code:

fn foo(res: std::io::Result<()>) -> eyre::Result<()> {
    res.wrap_err("IO error")
}

there’s no code action to import eyre::WrapErr, only to import eyre::Context.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Rust example with rust-analyzer and inspect the code-action logic for trait-method imports. Done means the action suggests importing eyre::WrapErr, not only its Context alias, for the res.wrap_err call.
