Does not create deep copy #110

Trying to deep copy a slice of struct but it is not working as all the copies are pointing to original and thus changing the copy affects the original

The fields of the struct must be exported in order to copy them.

This should be written in big letters in the readme 😂, it makes this library less useful as a usual use case is to copy structs from other packages with unexported fields.
