> NIFI-12452 introduced a new method on {{PropertyValue}} to type-safely access a property with allowableValues constrained by an Enum. 
> {code:java}
> <E extends Enum<E> & DescribedValue> E asDescribedValue(Class<E> enumType) throws IllegalArgumentException {code}
> I think it makes sense to align the access site in {{PropertyValue}} with the declaration site in {{PropertyDescriptor.Builder}}.
> This would involve renaming the method to {{asAllowableValue}} for improved symmetry.
> This is a breaking change, however the method was never part of an stable release.
> Additionally, NIFI-12573 unified the behaviour of specifying Enums (not) implementing {{DescribedValue}} as allowableValues. With this change in place, I think it's reasonable to open the method to accepts any Enum as well.
