…gnostic, r=estebank

Make the `structural_match` error diagnostic for const generics clearer

The previous diagnostic caused confusion (rust-lang#70790), so this changes the message to be closer to the message for using non-`structural_match` constants in patterns, explicitly mentioning `#[derive(PartialEq, Eq)]`.

Fixes rust-lang#70790.
