 `chainerror` uses `.source()` of `std::error::Error` along with `#[track_caller]` and `Location` to provide a nice debug error backtrace.
 It encapsulates all types, which have `Display + Debug` and can store the error cause internally.
 
-Along with the `ChainError<T>` struct, `chainerror` comes with some useful helper macros to save a lot of typing.

 `chainerror` has no dependencies!
