[issue29594] implementation of __or__ in enum.auto

[Ethan Furman]

Ethan Furman added the comment:

@Julian: Giving flag combinations their own name can be useful.  For example, instead of seeing Color.GREEN|RED one can see Color.YELLOW .

@Marc: I'm not convinced this is a needed change as it doesn't seem to be a common method, nor one that cannot be easily implemented independently (perhaps as a recipe in the docs).

Are you aware of other enumerations that take this approach?
