Create adjective entry for "fun" #1172

I don't have enough experience in WN yet to suggest which synset this should belong to.

The lemma "fun" exists in WN as a partOfSpeech noun but the adjective form does not exist.

I discovered this randomly while exploring the WN data file.

The new entry would end up looking something like:

   <LexicalEntry id="oewn-fun-a">
      <Lemma writtenForm="fun" partOfSpeech="a">
        <Pronunciation>fʌn</Pronunciation>
      </Lemma>

      <Sense id="..." synset="..."/>

    </LexicalEntry>

I don't know how one decides which synset is "the best" for this word but here's one possibility:

    <Synset id="oewn-01347192-s" ili="i7326" members="oewn-entertaining-a" partOfSpeech="s" lexfile="adj.all">
      <Definition>agreeably diverting</Definition>
      <SynsetRelation relType="similar" target="oewn-01346766-a"/>
      <Example>an entertaining puppet show</Example>
      <Example>films should be entertaining</Example>
    </Synset>
