Remember names of `cfg`-ed out items to mention them in diagnostics
# Examples
## `serde::Deserialize` without the `derive` feature (a classic beginner mistake)
I had to slightly modify serde so that it uses explicit re-exports instead of a glob re-export. (Update: a serde PR was merged that adds the manual re-exports)
```
error[E0433]: failed to resolve: could not find `Serialize` in `serde`
--> src/main.rs:1:17
|
1 | #[derive(serde::Serialize)]
| ^^^^^^^^^ could not find `Serialize` in `serde`
|
note: crate `serde` has an item named `Serialize` but it is inactive because its cfg predicate evaluated to false
--> /home/gh-Nilstrieb/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/serde-1.0.160/src/lib.rs:343:1
|
343 | #[cfg(feature = "serde_derive")]
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
344 | pub use serde_derive::{Deserialize, Serialize};
| ^^^^^^^^^
= note: the item is gated behind the `serde_derive` feature
= note: see https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html for how to activate a crate's feature
```
(the suggestion is not ideal but that's serde's fault)
I already tested the metadata size impact locally by compiling the `windows` crate without any features. `800k` -> `809k`
