Swift import C enum behavior
/*
For the sake of Swift import there are 3 types of enums:
1. A non-overlapping, non-option set enum
2. A non-overlapping option set
3. An overlapping option set
*/

/// enum Foo {

/// B

/// Imports in Swift to:
enum Foo {
case A

/// C enum of type 2: A non-overlapping option set
///
/// enum Foo {
/// A = 1,

/// Imports in Swift to:
