[PATCH v2 1/2] docs: fix places that break compilation in MyFirstObjectWalk

From

<5c9deaf0bccfe158c7f410f084529850a33b7fd0.1635530296.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1063.v2.git.1635530296.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: John Cai <johncai86@gmail.com>

Two errors in the example code caused compilation failures due to a missing semicolon as well as initialization with an empty struct. This commit fixes that to make the MyFirstObjectWalk tutorial easier to follow.
