So, when the `enumSwitch` bootstrap is called, the enum class may or may not be 
initialized. So, to avoid initialization, we only do lightweight checks, and 
construct a `MutableCallSite` with `lazyDoEnumSwitch` as a target.

When the `CallSite` is invoked with an actual selector value, two options may 
arise:
a) the selector value is null. The `lazyDoEnumSwitch` itself returns -1.
b) the selector value is not null. The enum class must already be initialized 
(I believe). So, we create (hopefully) better structure to do the 
categorization, based on `doEnumSwitch`, and set that into the `CallSite`. 
Further calls will use this new `doEnumSwitch` based categorization directly, 
without calling `lazyDoEnumSwitch`. The current call will manually delegate to 
the `doEnumSwitch` version, but that should only happen "once" (or a small 
number of times, due to running in different threads, etc.).
