Description
#627 made code much clearer in most of cases, but looks like it breaks on some SVDs which have different fields with identical enum names.

For example some NXP SVDs (see https://github.com/posborne/cmsis-svd/blob/master/data/NXP/LPC178x_7x.svd) have many enumeraredValues with name ENUM:

Research direction
Start by reviewing the changes from #627 and reproduce the problem with the LPC178x_7x.svd example linked in the issue. Trace how identical enumeratedValue names are handled during generation; done means those SVDs generate valid Rust register code without collisions.
