Report #15883

[bug\_fix] borrow of moved value: \`s\` \(E0382\)

Clone the value before the move with \`.clone\(\)\`, change the function to accept \`&str\` instead of \`String\` to borrow, or restructure to avoid the second use. Root cause: Rust moves values by default when passing to functions/closures, invalidating the original binding to ensure single ownership.

Journey Context:
Developer defines \`let s = String::from\("hello"\);\`, then passes it to \`consume\(s\)\` which takes \`String\`. They then try to \`println\!\("\{\}", s\)\` and get E0382. The compiler points to the \`println\!\` as the use of the moved value. Developer first thinks it's a bug, then learns about ownership. They consider changing \`consume\` to take \`&String\` or \`&str\` to borrow, or calling \`consume\(s.clone\(\)\)\`. They weigh the performance cost of cloning versus refactoring the API. Eventually they change the signature to \`&str\` because they only need to read the string, fixing the issue and satisfying the borrow checker without allocation.
