PyQt6 Enum implcit conversion

[Julien Cabieces]

Yes, I tried that also with /BaseType=IntEnum/, and I also get the same
issue even if the pyi generated file seems to be correctly generated

class MyEnum(enum.IntEnum):
        VALA = ... # type: Test.MyEnum
        VALB = ... # type: Test.MyEnum
        VALC = ... # type: Test.MyEnum

Regards,
Julien
