pub(restricted) bitflags

[dtolnay]

cc rust-lang/rust#32409 - maybe no action is warranted until this feature is stable.

bitflags! {
    pub(super) flags Flags: u8 {
        const A = 1
    }
}

pub(restricted) is now stable. But I think it is still blocked by :vis matcher (rust-lang/rust#41022) to allow a proper fix.

---

Currently the straightforward fix using :vis causes an error in example_generated.rs

error: local ambiguity: multiple parsing options: built-in NTs vis ('vis') or 1 other option.

It looks like using :vis here is unblocked now, right?
