CodingGuidelines: recommend against unportable C99 struct syntax

Per 33665d98e6b (reftable: make assignments portable to AIX xlc
v12.01, 2022-03-28) forms like ".a.b = *c" can be replaced by using
".a = { .b = *c }" instead.

We'll probably allow these sooner than later, but since the workaround
is trivial let's note it among the C99 features we'd like to hold off
on for now.
