Feature request: Allow passing a third-party dataclass

[caioariede]

Example:

from some_library import SomeDataclass
import dataclass_click

@dataclass_click(SomeDataclass)
def cmd(...):
    ...

Can still be customizable with:

@dataclass
class SomeDataclassExtended(SomeDataclass):
    some_field = Annotated[...]

Are you able to give a concrete example of a third party class that you’d like to work, that doesn’t. At first glance, this should already be possible.

After playing a little more with it, it really appears to be possible. I was able to do it by inheriting the dataclass and re-declaring the fields with option/Annotated - is that correct? If so, is there a way to not need to inherit/redeclare fields?
