The goal here is to avoid a conflict of names.

A variable binding in an irrefutable pattern is shadowing the name of a
constant. Example of erroneous code:
```compile_fail
const FOO: u8 = 7;
let FOO = 5; // error: variable bindings cannot shadow constants
// or
fn bar(FOO: u8) { // error: variable bindings cannot shadow constants
}
// or
for FOO in bar {
}
```
Introducing a new variable in Rust is done through a pattern. Thus you can have
`let` bindings like `let (a, b) = ...`. However, patterns also allow constants
in them, e.g. if you want to match over a constant:
```ignore
const FOO: u8 = 1;
match (x,y) {
(3, 4) => { .. }, // it is (3,4)
(FOO, 1) => { .. }, // it is (1,1)
(foo, 1) => { .. }, // it is (anything, 1)
// call the value in the first slot "foo"
_ => { .. } // it is anything
}
```
Here, the second arm matches the value of `x` against the constant `FOO`,
whereas the third arm will accept any value of `x` and call it `foo`.
This works for `match`, however in cases where an irrefutable pattern is
required, constants can't be used. An irrefutable pattern is one which always
matches, whose purpose is only to bind variable names to values. These are
required by let, for, and function argument patterns.
Refutable patterns in such a situation do not make sense, for example:
```ignore
let Some(x) = foo; // what if foo is None, instead?
let (1, x) = foo; // what if foo.0 is not 1?
let (SOME_CONST, x) = foo; // what if foo.0 is not SOME_CONST?
let SOME_CONST = foo; // what if foo is not SOME_CONST?
```
Thus, an irrefutable variable binding can't contain a constant.
To fix this error, just give the marked variable a different name.

More than one function parameter have the same name. Example of erroneous code:
