Problem statement
TypeError when using a record array to plot data
<!-- In the following, please describe your issue in detail! -->
<!-- If some sections do not apply, just remove them. -->
### Short description
<!-- This should summarize the issue. -->
Using a NumPy record array as data to plot results in the following:
`TypeError: Cannot compare structured or void to non-void arrays.`
### Code to reproduce
<!-- Please provide a minimal working example that reproduces the issue in the code block below.
Ideally, this should be a full example someone else could run without additional setup. -->
```python
import pyqtgraph as pg
import numpy as np
data_array = np.recarray((10,), dtype=[('x', float), ('y', float)])
pg.plot(data_array)
pg.exec()
```
### Expected behavior
<!-- What should happen? -->
According to the API reference, a PlotDataItem can be initialized with a NumPy recarray with `dtype=[('x', float), ('y', float), ...]`, so the above code should plot the (uninitialized) recarray data.
### Real behavior
<!-- What happens? -->
```
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\_\code\recarray_test.py", line 5, in <module>
pg.plot(data_array)
