Generic Error
A simple utility to convert any error type that isn't clonable into one that is,
while preserving source information providing Serialize and Deserialize functionality.
Magic?
How it works
The GenericError<E> wrapper type just stores the Display and Debug implementations of the wrapped type,
which is now always clonable and will serialize just fine.
The GenericError<E> type kinda looks like this:
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Clone)]
pub struct GenericError<T>
{
display: String,
debug: String,
source: Option<GenericError>,
}
.. although many details have been omitted for brevity
