When two Java objects 'a' and 'b' are compared in Python with the ==
Python operator, and the class of 'b' is not a subclass of the class of
'a', the Java equals method on 'a' receives a PySingleton, representing
an error.

This is caused by the __eq__ implementation provided by PyJavaType
unwrapping the 'b' object, and asking for it to be cast to the same type
as 'a'.

This can be demonstrated by constructing a java.util.ArrayList and a
java.util.Vector, both with the same contents, and comparing them.
Using the 'equals()' method from the Jython shell will result in True,
but using == will result in 'False'.

Please find attached a unit test that demonstrates this issue.

Does this survive the regrtest?

Also I think we want:

Object oProxy = o.getProxy();

instead of

Object oAsJava = o.__tojava__(Object.class);

They should result in the same result while the former is slightly more 
efficient

Also the __ne__ below it needs the same fix and a test

Please find attached a patch that:

- Uses getJavaProxy() instead of __tojava__(Object.class) as suggested
by pjenvey
- Applies the fix to __ne__() too
- Adds the unit test to test_java_integration

These modifications make no different to the output of the other
regression tests.
