enums not reflect in object response about piccolo

[dantownsend]

I agree that converting the values back into enums would be a nice feature. I wonder if it should be a default behaviour, or configurable in some way (maybe via the output clause).

To make the enum comparable to the raw string value you can do this:

# Note - it inherits from `str`
class ReindexStatus(str, Enum):
    ready_to_start = 'ready_to_start'
    started = 'started'

I would argue that it should be the default value, since the object() call is an explicit desire to get the returned object back in a "fully deserialized" form, and Enum casting is part of that. Not sure if it would break for existing users tho.

Thanks for the trick, I'll play with that!
