Slice to slice is nil when the name is the same but the type is different

[ganxiangdong]

Hi there,

When I try to convert an embedded slice, if the field name is the same in the slice, but the type is different, every element under the slice will be nil. I hope skip the mismatch field, continue to convert other matching fields. What should I do?

My test code is as follows：

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/mitchellh/mapstructure"
)

type G struct {
	Id   int
	Name string
}

type X struct {
	Id   int
	Name int
}

type GA struct {
	List []*G
}

type XA struct {
	List []*X
}

func main() {
	g2 := &GA{
		List: []*G{
			{
				Id:   11,
				Name: "g1",
			},
			{
				Id:   22,
				Name: "g2",
			},
		},
	}
	x2 := &XA{}
	err := mapstructure.Decode(g2, &x2)

	fmt.Printf("%+v \n", x2)
	//output: &{List:[<nil> <nil>]}

	fmt.Println(err)
	//output:
	//2 error(s) decoding:
	//* cannot parse 'List[0].Name' as int: strconv.ParseInt: parsing "g1": invalid syntax
	//* cannot parse 'List[1].Name' as int: strconv.ParseInt: parsing "g2": invalid syntax
}

my mapstructure version is v1.5.0. Looking forward to your reply.
