[issue25594] enum docs outdated re attribute access

[SilentGhost]

Color.red.blue

Traceback (most recent call last):
...
AttributeError: 'Color' object has no attribute 'blue'

which is demonstrably wrong in either 3.5 or 3.6. I presume that's a doc issue and I'd be glad to propose the patch as soon as someone more familiar with the module could confirm that.

Here is the test, it seems to have been 2545bfe0d273 that caused it (issue23486): test passes prior to it and fails on it (and I assume uniformly after).
