Do not suggest constraining the `&self` param, but rather the return type.
If that is wrong (because it is not sufficient), a follow up error will tell the
user to fix it. This way we lower the chances of *over* constraining, but still
get the cake of "correctly" contrained in two steps.
This is a correct suggestion:
```
error: lifetime may not live long enough
--> $DIR/ex3-both-anon-regions-return-type-is-anon.rs:9:9
|
LL | fn foo<'a>(&self, x: &i32) -> &i32 {
| - - let's call the lifetime of this reference `'1`
| |
| let's call the lifetime of this reference `'2`
LL | x
| ^ method was supposed to return data with lifetime `'2` but it is returning data with lifetime `'1`
|
help: consider introducing a named lifetime parameter and update trait if needed
|
LL | fn foo<'a>(&self, x: &'a i32) -> &'a i32 {
| ++ ++
```
While this is incomplete because it should suggestino `&'a self`
```

but the follow up error is

help: consider introducing a named lifetime parameter
|
7 | fn resolve_symbolic_reference<'a>(&'a self, reference: Option<Reference<'a>>) -> Option<Reference<'a>> {

```
The correct suggestion would be
```
help: consider introducing a named lifetime parameter
|
7 | fn resolve_symbolic_reference<'a>(&self, reference: Option<Reference<'a>>) -> Option<Reference<'a>> {
| ++++ ++++ ++++
```
but we are not doing the analysis to detect that yet. If we constrain `&'a self`, then the return type with a borrow will implicitly take its lifetime from `'a`, it is better to make it explicit in the suggestion, in case that `&self` *doesn't* need to be `'a`, but the return does.
