[sv-bc] Erratta/change: 3.10.3 Enum Type checking

In describing the type checking restrictions on enumerated types,
section 3.10.3 (pg 20) contains the sentence "This restriction only
applies to an enumeration that is explicitly declared as a type".

This sentence was put in as an apparent reconciliation between the
original Vera enums and the SV 3.0 enums.

See http://www.eda.org/sv-ec/SV_3.1_Web/SVTestbench_2.2.pdf section 5
page 19

This exception seems to be inconsistent with the rest of the type
checking system, and it is not entirely clear what "explicitly declared
as a type" means.

I propose that this sentence be dropped. The authors of the original
donation concur.

Dave
