Description
Currently, when one wishes to create an enum, the only way is to use the "Create Type" dialog and type in the enum definition. This is ok, but it is not the most convenient way. We should somehow offer a more smooth way of creating enum and its members. What I have in my mind is a UI dialog that allows you to type in the enum name, its members' name (and values). The members and values are optional. The user can also opt to only specify the enum's name and add its members later.

Research direction
Start by examining the existing Create Type dialog and the enum creation flow in Binary Ninja. Define the UI behavior for entering an enum name, optionally adding member names and values, and creating the enum before or after its members are specified.
