/// Support deserializing from flattened and non-flattened representation
///
/// When working with different serialization formats, sometimes it is more idiomatic to flatten
/// fields, while other formats prefer nesting. Using `#[serde(flatten)]` only the flattened form
/// is supported.
///
/// This helper creates a function, which support deserializing from either the flattened or the
/// nested form. It gives an error, when both forms are provided. The `flatten` attribute is
/// required on the field such that the helper works. The serialization format will always be
/// flattened.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```rust
/// # extern crate serde;
/// # extern crate serde_json;
/// # #[macro_use]
/// # extern crate serde_with;
/// #
/// # use serde::Deserialize;
/// #
/// // Setup the types
/// #[derive(Deserialize, Debug)]
/// struct S {
///     #[serde(flatten, deserialize_with = "deserialize_t")]
///     t: T,
/// }
///
/// #[derive(Deserialize, Debug)]
/// struct T {
///     i: i32,
/// }
///
/// // The macro creates custom deserialization code.
/// // You need to specify a function name and the field name of the flattened field.
/// flattened_maybe!(deserialize_t, "t");
///
///
/// # fn main() {
/// // Supports both flattened
/// let j = r#" {"i":1} "#;
/// assert!(serde_json::from_str::<S>(j).is_ok());
///
/// // and non-flattened versions.
/// let j = r#" {"t":{"i":1}} "#;
/// assert!(serde_json::from_str::<S>(j).is_ok());
///
/// // Ensure that the value is given
/// let j = r#" {} "#;
/// assert!(serde_json::from_str::<S>(j).is_err());
///
/// // and only occurs once, not multiple times.
/// let j = r#" {"i":1,"t":{"i":1}} "#;
/// assert!(serde_json::from_str::<S>(j).is_err());
/// # }
/// ```
