Base class for enumerations.
An enumeration has a name as a unique identifier and it is passed as a constructor argument. This argument
is made optional and a setter is provided to allow server side Enum mapping, since this requires a no-args
constructor.
Comparing 2 enum instances with the equals() method will return true if the enums are of the same type and
have the same name.
Note: for enum mapping with BlazeDS, check the EnumProxy java class at http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/BLZ-17
