10476 :: Is it possible to make enum + set[T] support bitmask style and size > uint16?

  For example

  type
    Attr {.bitmask.} = enum
      Attr1 = 1 shl 0
      Attr2 = 1 shl 63
    Attrs = set[Attr]
  
  const AllAttr = {Attr1, Attr2}
  
  doAssert sizeof(Attrs) == 8
  Run

  Not that hard.

  type
    Attr = enum
      Attr1 = 0
      Attr2 = 63
    Attrs = set[Attr]
  
  const AllAttr = {Attr1, Attr2}
  
  doAssert sizeof(Attrs) == 8
  Run

  Thank you for your reply. That's a really good idea. I can't believe I didn't think of it.
