jsgen: cannot create maps with enum keys #24671

Description

@gchumillas

Describe the bug

Cannot create maps with enum keys.

Reproduction Steps

Write a small main.v app:

enum Colors {
	red
	green
	blue
}

fn main() {
	_ := {
		Colors.red: 'red'
		.green: 'green'
		.blue: 'blue'
	}
}

Transpile to JS and execute it:

v -b js main.v
node main.js

It outputs the following tautology:

undefined is not a function (amen)

Expected Behavior

It should work.

Current Behavior

It doesn't work.
