reflect: make StructOf panic for methods that don't work

When StructOf is used with an anonymous field that has methods, and
that anonymous field is not the first field, the methods we generate
are incorrect because they do not offset to the field as required.
If we encounter that case, panic rather than doing the wrong thing.

Fixes #20824
Updates #15924
