Subject: [PATCH 1/2] rust: pin-init: examples: error: use `Error` in `fn main()`

When running this example with no cargo features enabled, the compiler
warns on 1.89:

  error: struct `Error` is never constructed
    --> examples/error.rs:11:12
     |
  11 | pub struct Error;
     |            ^^^^^
     |
     = note: `-D dead-code` implied by `-D warnings`
     = help: to override `-D warnings` add `#[allow(dead_code)]`

Thus use the error in the main function to avoid this warning.
