The position of the slot descriptor in `cl--struct-class-slots` mirrors the
position of the slot in the actual objet, so you just need `aref/aset`.

It would also make a lot of sense to replace/extend the useless
`:copier` thingy of `cl-defstruct` with something like the
`:constructor`, so you could say

    (cl-defstruct (my-foo
                   (:copier my-foo-with)
                   (:copier my-foo-with-a (b a)))
      a b c)

and then use (my-foo-with foo :c 42) and (my-foo-with-a foo 153 "42")
