This will address #267 (see added tests for example)
I've seen #231, and paid special attention that existing tests will not be broken. BTW, for me fixing #231 broken desired behaviour, but I understand the needs and importance of compatibility :)
My case is rather simple:
I have a struct with another embedded struct that also contains pointers to another structs along with "basic" type values. Before the fix, those embedded structs were not decoded into maps (i.e.
map[string]interface{}) although they hadmapstructuretags set appropriately. Added test could serve as a simplified example for described situation.
