Custom derive

[Michael-F-Bryan]

Now that custom derives are stable, would this be better done using them instead of a macro_rules macro? That way you can have the FromPrimitive and ToPrimitive trait definitions in enum_primitive and then a enum_primitive_derive crate to do the deriving.

I think something like this is more applicable to macros 1.1 than macros by example, and that way you also fix up long-standing issues like being unable to document each variant.

fwiw, I've got one published at https://crates.io/crates/enum-primitive-derive

[cardoe]

If the author of the crate would give me access to the enum-primitive crate then I'll wrap it all up in a nice bow like serde and serde_derive.

@cardoe, can't you just create a pull request? They shouldn't need to give you permissions to the GitHub repo or crates.io package just so you can add a change.
