The

 typename enum_flags_type<enum_type>::type

in the return type is written that way instead of simply

 enum_flags<enum_type> &
 operator|= (enum_type &e1, enum_type e2)

in order to have SFINAE disable the function if 
enum_flags_type<enum_type> is not defined for the flags
type.  I.e., that's what makes sure the function is only
defined for enums we only want it defined for.

There's no point in doing the SFINAE trick in both the return type
and in the parameters.
