Deserialize to concrete type with error line/column #33

Description

@probablykasper

I'd really like a way to deserialize into a struct while seeing the line/column of errors when there's an invalid type.

With serde_json::from_str I parse a string directly into a struct:

let settings_str = fs::read_to_string(&file_path).unwrap();
serde_json::from_str(&settings_str).unwrap()

And that shows the line/column. But with parse_to_serde_value() & serde_json::from_value, you lose that:

thread 'main' panicked at 'called Result::unwrap() on an Err value: Error("invalid type: boolean true, expected struct Example", line: 0, column: 0)', src/settings.rs:32:40
