`cl-struct-sequence-type' states that it will "Return `record',
`vector`, or `list' if STRUCT-TYPE is a struct type, nil
otherwise." This is incorrect: it will return `vector' or `list'
if the argument was declared with those types, but if the struct
type was defaulted to `record' it will return nil. If the
argument is not a struct type the function errors.
This is due to the fact that `cl-struct-define' has the following
clause:
(if (eq type 'record)
;; Defstruct using record objects.
(setq type nil))
before `type' is passed to `cl--struct-new-class'
(cf. cl-preloaded.el).
I'm happy to submit a PR updating the docstring for
`cl-struct-sequence-type', but wanted to verify that this is the
desired behavior first (i.e. returning nil if the type is
`record').
