enum: Add auto() support for automatic member value assignment.
Implements enum.auto() which automatically assigns sequential integer values to enum members. This follows PEP 435 behavior and uses the __prepare__ metaclass method for tracking auto() instances. Implementation details: - auto() instances are tracked via creation order using a global counter - Values start at max(explicit_values) + 1, or 1 if no explicit values - Requires MICROPY_PY_METACLASS_PREPARE to be enabled Limitation: Due to MicroPython's dict implementation, auto() values are assigned in creation order rather than definition order when mixed with explicit values. This differs from CPython 3.7+ but is clearly documented and affects only edge cases. Common patterns (all auto(), or auto() before explicit values) work identically to CPython. Changes: - lib/enum/enum.py: Add auto class, __prepare__ method, and auto() processing - tests/basics/enum_auto.py: Add comprehensive test suite with 9 test cases All tests pass. Size impact minimal (~50 lines of Python code). Signed-off-by: Andrew Leech <[email protected]>
