Support for tracing with `Std::panic::Location` (Feature Request)

[mhgolkar]

Hello there

It's sometime useful to simply trace the location of an error's origin, through nested callers and micro managed errors. Compared to already existing Backtrace, it might be more concise, and thanks to std::panic::Location and #[track_caller] being stabilized it wouldn't need nightly.

Thanks for the great crate

I also think some kind of backtrace chaining through source errors is really needed for thiserror.

Anyone know if there are plans to implement this? It looks like it should be pretty easy. A basic implementation looks like this

// New error type encapsulating the original error and location data.
#[derive(Debug, Clone)]
struct LocatedError<E: Error + 'static> {
    inner: E,
    location: &'static Location<'static>,
}

impl<E: Error + 'static> Error for LocatedError<E> {
    fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)> {
        Some(&self.inner)
    }
}

impl<E: Error + 'static> std::fmt::Display for LocatedError<E> {
    fn fmt(&self, f: &mut std::fmt::Formatter<'_>) -> std::fmt::Result {
        write!(f, "{}, {}", self.inner, self.location)
    }
}

impl From<std::io::Error> for LocatedError<std::io::Error> {
    // The magic happens here
    #[track_caller]
    fn from(err: std::io::Error) -> Self {
        LocatedError {
            inner: err,
            location: std::panic::Location::caller(),
        }
    }
}

To me this feature is basically begging to be included in thiserror.
