/// An error reporter that prints an error and its sources.
///
/// Report also exposes configuration options for formatting the error sources, either entirely on a
/// single line, or in multi-line format with each source on a new line.
///
/// `Report` only requires that the wrapped error implement `Error`. It doesn't require that the
/// wrapped error be `Send`, `Sync`, or `'static`.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```rust
/// #![feature(error_reporter)]
/// use std::error::{Error, Report};
/// use std::fmt;
///
/// #[derive(Debug)]
/// struct SuperError {
///     source: SuperErrorSideKick,
/// }
///
/// impl fmt::Display for SuperError {
///     fn fmt(&self, f: &mut fmt::Formatter<'_>) -> fmt::Result {
///         write!(f, "SuperError is here!")
///     }
/// }
///
/// impl Error for SuperError {
///     fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)> {
///         Some(&self.source)
///     }
/// }
///
/// #[derive(Debug)]
/// struct SuperErrorSideKick;
///
/// impl fmt::Display for SuperErrorSideKick {
///     fn fmt(&self, f: &mut fmt::Formatter<'_>) -> fmt::Result {
///         write!(f, "SuperErrorSideKick is here!")
///     }
/// }
///
/// impl Error for SuperErrorSideKick {}
///
/// fn get_super_error() -> Result<(), SuperError> {
///     Err(SuperError { source: SuperErrorSideKick })
/// }
///
/// fn main() {
///     match get_super_error() {
///         Err(e) => println!("Error: {}", Report::new(e)),
///         _ => println!("No error"),
///     }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// This example produces the following output:
///
/// ```console
/// Error: SuperError is here!: SuperErrorSideKick is here!
/// ```
///
/// ## Output consistency
///
/// Report prints the same output via `Display` and `Debug`, so it works well with
/// [`Result::unwrap`]/[`Result::expect`] which print their `Err` variant via `Debug`:
