supporting some simple enum-like use case, as well as arbitrary value
types like strings or floats.  It is rather simple to use and does not
have a big footprint, but supports the following features:

* Ease of use (a simple class for scoping, plain definitions inside)
* Enumeration of defined constants
* Values know their *name*, i.e. you don't have to guess which meaning
  the constant value 3 has (e.g. it's name() will be 'blue' and its
  __repr__ will format as 'Colors.blue')
* Arbitrary value types (not just integers)
* Constant-ness (no change after time of definition)''',
