eye fails on VideoReader objects from the VideoIO.jl package

[jonalm]

Hi,

I stumbled upon a case where eye fails. Consider this

julia> using Eyeball
julia> using VideoIO
julia> sample_avi_fn = download("https://www.engr.colostate.edu/me/facil/dynamics/files/drop.avi")
julia> handle = VideoIO.openvideo(sample_avi_fn)
julia> eye(handle)
ERROR: type Ptr has no field data
Stacktrace:

The following makes me suspect that something's broken with getproperty or with propertynames for a VideoIO.NestedCStruct{VideoIO.libffmpeg.AVCodecContext}.

julia> dump(handle.codec_context, maxdepth=2)
VideoIO.NestedCStruct{VideoIO.libffmpeg.AVCodecContext}
  data: Base.RefValue{Ptr{VideoIO.libffmpeg.AVCodecContext}}
    x: Ptr{VideoIO.libffmpeg.AVCodecContext} @0x0000000003e90cc0

julia> handle.codec_context.data

Maybe I should include a try in there somewhere to catch objects that are broken like this.

Or maybe fallback to getfield.
