`__prepare__` returns a dict-like namespace that is used as is. `EnumMeta` uses `__prepare__` to return an instance of
`_EnumDict`.
When `type.__new__` is called, whatever the namespace used to be is then converted into a normal Python dict, and a
mappingproxy is returned for all further `cls.__dict__` requests.
To be more precise, when `__prepare__` is called, there is no class, and
therefore no `class.__dict__`.
