const Doc = `check for unkeyed composite literals

This analyzer reports a diagnostic for composite literals of struct
types imported from another package that do not use the field-keyed
syntax. Such literals are fragile because the addition of a new field
(even if unexported) to the struct will cause compilation to fail.

As an example,

	err = &net.DNSConfigError{err}

should be replaced by:

	err = &net.DNSConfigError{Err: err}
