Although "使能" is a direct morpheme-matching translation of "enable", many native Chinese speakers (especially those not deeply familiar with Indo-European languages) find it obnoxious because there aren't apparent objects for 使 or 能 -- in pure-Chinese 使能 is paraphrased like 使……能够……, both of which *must* take an object respectively, *in that exact word order*. Being just a newsletter, we don't want to needlessly make people unhappy over such minuscule things, so replace those "enable" usages with more verbose expressions involving 启用. More discussion at the linked issue. Fixes: loongson-community#101
