Add a way to iterate over enums

Huh, view_as should not work in the preprocessor. I'll fix that. Anyway, the answer (which you probably won't like, since you mentioned it), is: make your enum values sequential, define...

Compiler crash on calling a variable

Yeah, BindCallTarget is returning nullptr with no report. Whoops.

Thanks, this has been fixed on master.

Compiler crash on calling a variable

Assigning arrays of theoretically same size, but error 047

I was on the fence about allowing this... it gets weird IMO because adding/removing a single character to anything in the last dimension can suddenly break all the sizeof() usage....

Enum struct fields do not allow to define fields with the same type separated by commas

This was an explicit design choice to make the syntax simpler, but I think we should change it.

typedef'ing extended to identifiers/variables

This is something I'd really like to do, and the experimental v2 frontend does support it. This sort of thing used to be impossible in spcomp, but nowadays it's more...

Operator overloads don't work with enum structs

This isn't on my short list of things to do, but it would be nice to have. The current compiler infrastructure makes it very difficult to implement so it's probably...

Newdecls doesn't trigger warning for using old enum structs syntax
