Rollup merge of #115473 - gurry:113110-expected-item, r=compiler-errors

Add explanatory note to 'expected item' error

Fixes #113110

It changes the diagnostic from this:

```
error: expected item, found `5`
 --> ../test.rs:1:1
  |
1 | 5
  | ^ expected item
 ```
to this:
```
error: expected item, found `5`
 --> ../test.rs:1:1
  |
1 | 5
  | ^ expected item
  |
  = note: items are things that can appear at the root of a module
  = note: for a full list see https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/items.html
```
