In encoders.py/jsonable_encoder, default encoders for each type are specified first & are used in preference to custom encoders.
This affects custom encoders specified for certain types like enums such that the default encoder is always executed and any custom encoders specified are ignored. See - #1986 - for a description of this issue and example code as well that illustrates the problem.
This PR adds a change to prefer custom encoders if specified in preference to default encoders.
