-Znext-solver with TinyVec and Rand

[wyatt-herkamp]

I was trying the new trait resolver system and I am getting compiler issues with two libraries

Tinyvec

The two libraries are depends of my project. I tried compiling them by themselves. Still getting the error.

I am not sure if this is the correct way to report this bug.

#107374

[SNCPlay42]

Reduced from tinyvec (note this requires -Znext-solver=globally, not just -Znext-solver=coherence):

use core::ops::Index;

pub struct SliceVec<T> {
    data: T,
}

impl<T, I> Index<I> for SliceVec<T> {
    type Output = ();
    fn index(&self, index: I) -> &Self::Output {
        unimplemented!()
    }
}

The rand version looks basically the same - the associated type mentioned is an argument, not the return type.

[compiler-errors]

This is fixed by #119101

[compiler-errors]

Correction: This will be fixed by #120513, since we need to fix it for NLL too.

[wyatt-herkamp]

The code compiles now with the -Znext-solver flag!
Thank y'all.
