Description

If I have a

struct MyStruct { my_field: usize }

It would be cool if LSP incoming calls would work for it, so that it takes you to places like

MyStruct {prop: 42};

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified in the issue. Start by tracing rust-analyzer's LSP incoming-call handling for struct initialization, then verify that a struct literal such as MyStruct { prop: 42 } appears as an incoming call for the declared struct and add coverage for that behavior.
