Specification using enum values does not follow `@Enumerated(EnumType.STRING)` and tries to convert it to smallint

Could you provide your specifications code? It's better to provide a minimal reproducer project.

Thank you for your attention and I really sorry as I found out that the problem is on my side.

Turns out that we have a custom code that builds Specifications based on generic parameters and due to the Hibernate change it started breaking.

The previous code was creating an Expression using

 pathExpression = path.as(path.getJavaType());

The implementation was SingularAttributePath and it was mapped correctly,

On hibernate 6, the same logic was creating a SelfRenderingSqmFunction with the incorrect types.

Turns out that I only need the .as(path.getJavaType()) anymore and the new logic is

 pathExpression = path;

which maps the correct type

I honestly don't know how this magic works, but it is not working again.

Sorry for creating an issue that was a problem on my side.
