Summary: enum keyword

Initial Comment:
Story:
A user declares an enumerated type in the definitions
pane under the new 1.5 syntax.  The work enum is
correctly colored the same as other keywords.

I believe this to be an extremely straightforward
change to the set of defined keywords in
DefinitionsDocument (though I haven't ever added a
keyword).  The only question would be whether to try to
add this as a keyword conditionally (only if they have
a 1.5 compiler available).  This is something I think
we could do, though in my opinion, it doesn't seem
necessary.  Now that enum is a keyword in 1.5, it seems
unwise to use it even with older compilers.  I believe
this is the same approach we took with the assert
keyword, as well.
