Auto merge of #13367 - y21:issue13364, r=Manishearth

Visit struct fields recursively in uninit fallback check

This makes the fallback a bit more consistent with the other checks and rustc.

Fixes #13364. When using a generic type as the `Vec` element type like the issue title says, rustc's uninit check fails and our fallback is used, which didn't look at struct fields when it could.
