Commit Message

Follows the qapi/introspect.py definition of the same; this adds a more
precise typing to _gen_tree's mtype parameter.

NB: print(SchemaMetaType.BUILTIN) would produce the string
"SchemaMetaType.BUILTIN", but when using format strings (.format or f-strings),
it relies on the __format__ method defined in the Enum class, which uses the
"value" of the enum instead, producing the string "builtin".

For consistency with old-style format strings (which simply call the
__str__ method of an object), a __str__ dunder is added, though it is
not actually used here in this code.

The fanciness compared to plain Enum('SchemaMetaType', 'BUILTIN ...')
avoids extra code to map the enum values to the strings with need.

Gain: _gen_tree()'s second argument's type now serves as documentation,
and passing crap to it becomes harder.

Gut feeling: too much notational overhead for too little gain.

Opinions?

I wasn't even aware there was a short form. (TIL!)

This form allows me to inherit from str and pass the value around 
anywhere strings are used. Due to the generalized nature of 
tree_to_qlit, using the short constructor form (which creates ints) 
would need additional magic to be useful.

You can almost replicate it:

_values = ('builtin', 'enum', 'array')
_nv_pairs = [(value.upper(), value) for value in _values]
SchemaMetaType = enum.Enum('SchemaMetaType', _nv_pairs, type=str)

though this loses out on the __str__ method hack, and I don't think mypy 
will be able to introspect into this functional constructor.

No strong feelings one way or the other, honestly. I wrote this mostly 
to see how much the overhead would be based on your comment about the 
loose typing of meta-type as str.

If it's too much for too little for you, I'm okay without it too.
