Generating an invalid code from enum in JDL

[vw98075]

Overview of the issue

In JDL,

enum Currency {
    USD("USD")   
}

The generated Java code will be

/**
 * The Currency enumeration.
 */
public enum Currency {
    USD;

    private final String value;

    Currency(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }

    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }
}

The code isn't valid.

It seems appropriate to change the current code so that an enum is deemed to not have a custom value when its key equals its value:

If there's no disagreement, I plan to submit a Pull Request for this.
