Add the following suggestions:

error[E0782]: trait objects must include the `dyn` keyword

LL | fn bar(x: Foo) -> Foo {
   |           ^^^

help: use a generic type parameter, constrained by the trait `Foo`
   |
LL | fn bar<T: Foo>(x: T) -> Foo {
   |       ++++++++    ~
help: you can also use `impl Foo`, but users won't be able to specify the type paramer when calling the `fn`, having to rely exclusively on type inference
   |
LL | fn bar(x: impl Foo) -> Foo {
   |           ++++
help: alternatively, use a trait object to accept any type that implements `Foo`, accessing its methods at runtime using dynamic dispatch
   |
LL | fn bar(x: &dyn Foo) -> Foo {

help: use `impl Foo` to return an opaque type, as long as you return a single underlying type

LL | fn bar(x: Foo) -> impl Foo {
   |                   ++++
help: alternatively, you can return an owned trait object
