After some consideration and discussions, we've decided that enum parsing is an entirely different feature from naming strategy: while strategy changes names, enum parsing should affect values. Besides, there are some cases when the strategy for enums is not enough: e.g. you want to parse both Foo and foo into FOO, like Jackson's CASE_INSENSETIVE_ENUMS.

Therefore, enum support would be removed entirely from this PR. I'll reopen #209 for it.

@qwwdfsad @shanshin It's ready for review

* Therefore, it is essential for this function to be pure: it should not have any side effects, and it should
* return the same String for a given [descriptor], [elementIndex], and [serialName], regardless of the number of invocations.

The serialName parameter could possibly be renamed to elementSerialName as there is also a type serial name. (The documentation here, especially the guarantee in code, make the semantics clear though. The parameter still does present a redundant parameter (as it can be retrieved trivially).

In the initial prototype, there was only descriptor and serialName; you can easily also say that elementIndex is redundant, as you can get it via descriptor.getElementName(). However, I think it is easier to provide both of them to avoid hassle

Or, it is possible, to name it elementName instead 🤔

How can i use this feature?
You probably need to drop an example when pushed new features, in my opinion the main documentation page it's a little bit poor

How can i use this feature?

Like:

import kotlinx.serialization.json.JsonNamingStrategy

val json = Json {
    ignoreUnknownKeys = true
    namingStrategy = JsonNamingStrategy.SnakeCase
    serializersModule = module
}

Edit: ignoreUnknownKeys = true and serializersModule = module are not relevant, they were just part of my code.
