feat(users/Profpatsch/struct-edit): per-level position r/2542
The user expects the editor to remember the positions of fields they
navigated from to a new level, so when they return they get put in the
same spot.

We push the index from one field into every level of the value.

Unfortunately this introduces pointers and all the woes they bring.
