Report #7947

[bug\_fix] the trait bound \`MyStruct: std::fmt::Debug\` is not satisfied \(E0277\) when using \`println\!\("\{:?\}", val\)\`

Add \`\#\[derive\(Debug\)\]\` above the struct definition, or manually implement \`std::fmt::Debug\` for the struct.

Journey Context:
You're debugging your application and try to print a struct you just defined: \`println\!\("\{:?\}", my\_struct\)\`. The compiler throws E0277, complaining that \`MyStruct\` doesn't implement \`Debug\`. You're confused because you see \`Debug\` used everywhere in examples. You search "how to print struct rust", find StackOverflow answers saying to use \`\#\[derive\(Debug\)\]\`. You add it above your \`struct MyStruct \{ ... \}\`, and it works instantly. You realize this auto-derives the Debug trait implementation, saving you from writing verbose boilerplate \`impl std::fmt::Debug\` code.
