cmd/cgo: for -godefs, promote first field of anonymous union

Update golang#6677

When a struct contains an anonymous union, use the type and
name of the first field in the union.

This should make the glibc <sys/resource.h> file work; in that
file struct rusage has fields like

__extension__ union
{
        long int ru_maxrss;
        __syscall_slong_t __ru_maxrss_word;
};

in which the field that matters is ru_maxrss and
__ru_maxrss_word just exists to advance to the next field on
systems where the kernel uses long long fields but userspace
expects long fields.
