==========================================
Issue 5558 - opIn_r not detected as method for 'in' in pointed struct

In a struct, opIn_r is not detected by the compiler as beeing the method 
implementing the operator 'in'. Example:

struct S {
     int i;
     void show() { writeln(i); }
     const bool opEquals (ref const(S) s) {
         writeln("==");
         return (i == s.i);
     }
     bool opIn_r (int j) { return (i==j); }
}
unittest {
     S* sp = &(S(1));
     writeln(sp.i);
     sp.show();

     S s2 = S(1);
     writeln(sp == s2);
     writeln(1 in s2);

     // error:
     writeln(1 in sp);
}
==>
     Error: rvalue of in expression must be an associative array, not S*

This concerns opIn_r on pointed struct only; the other struct members of the 
structn and the not-pointed one are only here to contrast:
* Data members, regular methods and even "language methods" like opEquals are 
correctly taken into account on a struct, even via implicite deref.
* opIn_r is correctly detected as implementing 'in' on a non-pointed or 
explicitely dereferenced struct.

Thus, the code works fine if one comments out the very last line.

Waiting for a fix, the error message should be corrected to eg:
     Error: right operand of 'in' operation must be an associative array
            or implement the operator 'in' via method opIn_r
