update zng type enum #1314

@mccanne

Description

@mccanne

Enums are currently represented by strings but they should be coded as ints (i.e., the positional index of the enum string in the typedef) so that end systems using zng with enum can recover the full typedef of the enum. This will also serve as a hint to optimization that an enum column has low cardinality.
