reflect: remove out of date UTF-8 StructOf restriction

The initial implementation of reflect.StructOf in
https://golang.org/cl/9251 had a limitation that field names had to be
ASCII, which was later lifted by https://golang.org/cl/21777.  Remove
the out-of-date documentation disallowing UTF-8 field names.

Updates: #5748
Updates: #15064
