docs: xforms_lists: better evaluate struct_group macros

The previous approach were to unwind nested structs/unions.

Now that we have a logic that can handle it well, use it to
ensure that struct_group macros will properly reflect the
actual struct.

Note that the replacemend logic still simplifies the code
a little bit, as the basic build block for struct group is:

	union { \
		struct { MEMBERS } ATTRS; \
		struct __struct_group_tag(TAG) { MEMBERS } ATTRS NAME; \
	} ATTRS

There:

- ATTRS is meant to add extra macro attributes like __packed
  which we already discard, as they aren't relevant to
  document struct members;

- TAG is used only when built with __cplusplus.

So, instead, convert them into just:

    struct { MEMBERS };

Please notice that here, we're using the greedy version of the
backrefs, as MEMBERS is actually MEMBERS... on all such macros.
