When encountering ... when .. is expected, parser should suggest the latter #46718

Description

@pnkfelix

Consider the following code:

fn main() {
    struct S { one: u32, _two: u32 }
    match (S { one: 1, _two: 2 }) {
        S { one: 1, ... } => println!("oy"),
        _ => println!("no"),
    }
}

If you try to compile this, you get the following errors:

error: expected identifier, found `...`
 --> src/main.rs:4:21
  |
4 |         S { one: 1, ... } => println!("oy"),
  |                     ^^^

error[E0027]: pattern does not mention field `one`
 --> src/main.rs:4:9
  |
4 |         S { one: 1, ... } => println!("oy"),
  |         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ missing field `one`

error[E0027]: pattern does not mention field `_two`
 --> src/main.rs:4:9
  |
4 |         S { one: 1, ... } => println!("oy"),
  |         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ missing field `_two`

error: aborting due to 3 previous errors

See the bug?

Its because I used ... when I should have used ..

It would be nice if the compiler, in its ever friendly manner, suggested the latter to me.
