[fpc-pascal] Scoped enums and inferred types

[russeld]

Pascal allows type declarations at the procedure level, so you could use type
aliases to reduce your typing and still have code completion:

procedure foo();
type 
  SVK = NSSomeLongNameOfSomethingValueKey;
var
  a: SVK;
begin
  a := SVK.some_key_value;
end;

If you tried to use SVK elsewhere an error would be raised

Russ
