With this change (just the `help` was added):
```
error[E0594]: cannot assign to immutable indexed content
--> index-error.rs:7:5
|
7 | map["peter"] = 27;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ cannot borrow as mutable
|
= help: trait `IndexMut` is required to modify indexed content, but it is not implemented for std::collections::HashMap<&str, i32>
```

Yesterday I did some pair programming with a Rust-beginner. We created a type and implemented `Index` for it. Trying to modify the value returned by the index operation returns in a rather vague error that was not very clear for the Rust beginner. So I tried to improve the situation.
## Notes/questions for reviewers:
- Is the formulation OK like that? I'm fine with changing it.
- Can we be absolutely sure that `IndexMut` is actually not implemented in the case my `help` message is added? I'm fairly sure myself, but there could be some cases I didn't think of. Also, I don't know the compiler very well, so I don't know what exactly certain enum variants are used for.
- It would be nice to test if `IndexMut` is in fact not implemented for the type, but I couldn't figure out how to check that. If you think that additional check would be beneficial, could you tell me how to check if a trait is implemented?
- Do you think I should change the error message instead of only adding an additional help message?
