Add a way to get shorter spans until `char` for pointing at defs

```rust
error[E0072]: recursive type `X` has infinite size
  --> file.rs:10:1

10 | struct X {
   | ^^^^^^^^ recursive type has infinite size
   |
   = help: insert indirection (e.g., a `Box`, `Rc`, or `&`) at some point to make `X` representable
```
