Mistake on where attributes are allowed in StructExpr and more #1021

Description

@yizhepku

According to the reference, only inner attributes are allowed in an StructExpr:

StructExprStruct :
   PathInExpression { InnerAttribute* (StructExprFields | StructBase)? }

However, this seems not to be the behaviour of rustc. rustc instead accepts only outer attributes for each field, but not inner attributes for the entire expression.

For example, this compiles in rustc:

struct S { x: i64, y: i64 }
fn main() {
    let s =  S { x: 1, #[deprecated] y: 2};
}

But not this:

struct S { x: i64, y: i64 }
fn main() {
    let s =  S { #![deprecated] x: 1, y: 2};
}
