ion-schema-rust should implement a similar approach as what is described here:
🗺️ IonFailure (imported above on line 5) is a new crate-visible trait that provides extension methods for the IonResult and IonError types.
Previously, each IonError variant had one helper function in crate::result that would build an IonResult, and an accompanying function that would being an IonError. The names got pretty weird. For example, decoding_error would return an IonResult (not an error, as one could reasonably infer), and decoding_error_raw would return an IonError. (The "raw" indicated that it hadn't gone through the final step of wrapping the IonError in a Result::Err, which was not an obvious connection.)
The IonFailure trait replaces those method pairs. Now you can use IonResult::decoding_error to make an IonResult and you can use IonError::decoding_error to make an IonError. Much more straightforward.
