Just the one suggestion from me; otherwise looks good!

Suggested change
"consider casting the expected and found fn items to fn pointers, i.e. `{}` and the following suggestion",
"consider casting both fn items to fn pointers using `as ....`",

(fill in the .... with just the signature they need to be casted to)

And then perhaps using https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustc_errors/diagnostic/struct.Diagnostic.html#method.span_suggestion_hidden

Let me explain my thinking here: the phrasing "expected and found fn items" is a bit verbose, and "and the following suggestion" is a bit awkward. Let's avoid both by just explaining the gist of what the user needs to do.

Yeah, that explanation is much nicer to read. --verbose is my default and it has been much harder than expected to be concise.
