utils: Fix bad conversion for enumerations

When an interface contains both a string and an enumeration (or multiple
of each), the variant visitor matches the wrong make specialization.

This is because a string is convertible to variant<string, enum, ...>.
Fix this by moving out all conversions from a string to the template
specialization that first checks if the string can be converted to
an enumeration.

This still leaves a hole where trying to set a fully-qualified
enumeration name to a string property will fail, but I am not sure what
to do about that within the current PIM framework.

Tested: Tested Notify with enumerations on interfaces that contain both
a string and an enumeration.
