Report #58321

[bug\_fix] the trait bound \`T: Trait\` is not satisfied \(e.g., \`T: std::fmt::Display\` or \`T: Clone\`\)

Add the required trait bound to the generic parameter in the function signature using \`\` syntax or a \`where\` clause, ensuring the concrete types used at call sites implement the required traits.

Journey Context:
Developer writes a generic function \`fn print\_it\(item: T\) \{ println\!\("\{\}", item\); \}\` attempting to print any type. The compiler complains that \`T\` doesn't implement \`Display\`. Developer initially tries importing \`std::fmt::Display\` but forgets to add the bound to the generic parameter. After searching the error, they learn to write \`fn print\_it\(item: T\)\` or use \`where T: Display\`, understanding that Rust requires explicit declaration of capabilities for generic types to enable monomorphization.
