Summary description:  A crossover of align* and enumerate

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 The gatherenum package (ab)uses the inline enumeration capabilities of
 enumitem to add a « displayed » enumeration mode, triggered by adding
 |gathered| to the key-val option list of the enumerate environment.
 The end result is similar to a regular enumerate environment wrapped
 in a multicols environment, with the following advantages:

 * gathered enumerate can pack items depending on their actual width
   rather than a fixed, constant number per line.

 * it fills items in a line-major order (instead of column-major order),
   which my students found less confusing.
   YMMV.
