[BUG] Can't handle enums in Routes

Overview of the issue

When using an enum inside routes, I get an error on invoking compodoc:

Compodoc installed globally or locally ?

Compodoc is of course installed locally.

Motivation for or Use Case

Would be handy to use enums, because this saves us from writing the same paths in multiple places. When I turn it into a const object, it still fails.

Reproduce the error

What do you expect here? A gist? I would need some time to compile one.

Related issues

Similiar issue reported in #361.

Suggest a Fix

When I dump the text in https://github.com/json5/json5/blob/v0.5.1/lib/json5.js#L503 I see

{"canActivate":["AuthGuard"],"loadChildren":"app/modules/+document/document.module#DocumentModule","path":"EAPP_ROUTES"."DOCUMENT",/*snip*/}

So the enum is broken up in two strings. The dot is breaking, because the JSON is invalid.

@attilacsanyi Ok duplicate of #400 I also add this one in the routing project issues tracking : https://github.com/compodoc/compodoc/projects/3

[vogloblinsky]

Bug fixed for dynamic path and pathMatch for route definition. (https://github.com/compodoc/compodoc/commit/633ea2f834d26ed5d1edf638969a272e002b7691) Need to work on other parts of route description : angular.io/api/router/Routes#description It will come in next release very soon, hope this week.
