#10349: atomic misses specialization for enums

  Version:  Boost 1.56.0      |   Severity:  Optimization
 Keywords:  enum, atomic      |
------------------------------+--------------------------
 Maybe there is a reason, that boost::atomic does not support a
 specialization for enums and handles them like user-defined types, but
 lock-free access to enums would be nice.

 I just extended the existing implementation. Ofc, now code is redundant
 and functions common to integral and enum specializations maybe moved into
 a base class to avoid that.
