Scala 3: What should be done

See original GitHub issue

Looking at Scala 3, the enumerations built into the language look pretty good.

The questions are

What should enumeratum look like in a Scala 3 world?
- What problems are we trying to solve? The problems with Scala 2 enums were pretty obvious, which led to the core of this lib

The first step towards Scala 3 for any real-world project is cross-compilation between Scala 2.13/Scala 3. Most of the OSS libs added Scala 3 to their cross-builds.

IMO, this will be a status quo for the next few years. Only then we’ll drop Scala 2 support and migrate to the new enums.

Thus, the Enumeratum macros should be ported.

There’s a PR open (https://github.com/lloydmeta/enumeratum/pull/349) that I’ve slowly been reviewing over iterations.
