Can't have a custom type be the input to a controller action

[jfmario]

With the following controller:

package route171

import (
	"errors"
	"strings"
)

type Controller struct {
	// Dependencies...
}

type Email string

func (email Email) Validate() error {
	if !strings.Contains(string(email), "@") {
		return errors.New("Not a valid email.")
	}
	return nil
}

func (c *Controller) Index(email Email) []string {
	return []string{}
}

There is the following error:

genfs: error generating "bud/internal/app/controller/controller.go". controller: unable to load: controller: unable to find param definition for Email. parser: unable to find declaration for "Email" in "route171"
exit status 1

This came up when I was working on issue #171

I'll take a look at what is going on, but I wanted to put this issue in for tracking it since it's separate.

So, here is where it needs to be handled: https://github.com/livebud/bud/blob/main/package/parser/definition.go#L23

I've been looking into it, but so far I'm at a bit of a loss as to what has happen here... other than that the value of decl has to be set to something that the bud parser will understand.

Thanks @jfmario! This is indeed a known issue. I'll try to push up a fix soon to unblock you, but otherwise feel free to wrap up the other PR on just with just struct support and we'll get to this later!
