[C++-sig] Check if object is of type Boost.Python.enum

[matthew.scouten at gmail.com]

There is no way to import, as Boost.Python.enum or Boost.Python.class. 
This can be a problem.

This is what I used when I was doing boost.python:

def isEnumType(o):return isinstance(o, type)and 
issubclass(o,int)andnot(o isint)

This also detects other subclasses of int, so if you are doing a lot of 
that, you will also want to check that the module is your extension 
module.
