This adds a new `msgspec.structs` module. The purpose of this module is to include struct-related utilities that aren't worth surfacing to the top-level namespace, but don't really belong anywhere else either. So far this just includes a new `msgspec.structs.info` function (and return types) for inspecting information about a struct type. This is a shallow-version of the full-featured `msgspec.inspect.type_info` function: - It only works for struct types - It doesn't recurse into the field types Most use cases where you're inspecting msgspec types you probably want to use `msgspec.inspect.type_info` instead.

With #328 exposing all struct class-level configuration, I'm going to close and rework this to something like: def fields(struct_instance_or_class) -> tuple[FieldInfo]:
...
class FieldInfo:
name: str
encode_name: str
type: Any
default: Any = None |
