For example right now there is Item::Mac but TraitItem::Macro.

What abbreviations do we use? Let's pick one version of each and be consistent. I am okay with choosing independently for each abbreviation, does not have to be all abbreviated or all spelled out.

    • Mac
    • Macro
    • Ty
    • Type
    • Tup
    • Tuple
    • Fn
    • Function
    • Mod
    • Module
    • Const
    • Constant

Where applicable, I would abbreviate only the things that Rust source code abbreviates. For example Rust uses fn and mod and const, but spells out type and macro.
