go 1.18 generics support

At the very least generic types should be skipped for processing (potentially with a warning) instead of erroring.

Do you have any plans for it?

Are there any updates ?
There are some problems with types when try to generate code that contains generics with pointer types.

Example:

package some_package;

//easyjson:json
type SecondNested struct {
	SomeField bool `json:"someField"`
}

type NestedStruct[U json.Unmarshaler] struct {
	SecondNested U `json:"secondNested"`
}

type Main[U json.Unmarshaler] struct {
	NestedStructs NestedStruct[U] `json:"nested"`
}

//easyjson:json
type SomeType struct {
	Main[*SecondNested]
}

Generated code:

func easyjson<...>SecondNested(in *jlexer.Lexer, out *NestedStruct[*some_package.SecondNested]) {}
func easyjson<...>SecondNested(out *jwriter.Writer, in NestedStruct[*some_package.SecondNested]) {}

Problem is at this type *some_package.SecondNested, there must not be some_package in type declaration.
