I feel like this wording could be clearer (imagine a brand new user indignantly thinking, "You're the compiler; you should know whether it's a compilation error or not"), but I'm not sure what exact phrasing to suggest instead; "this Result
may be an Err
variant" may be too jargony.

…avus Add some explanations for #[must_use] `#[must_use]` can be given a string argument which is shown whilst warning for things. We should add a string argument to most of the user-exposed ones. I added these for everything but the operators, mostly because I'm not sure what to write there or if we need anything there.
