Log:
LANG-568 - @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") is used too generally

I think all the warnings that can be safely suppressed have now been suppressed 
(and documented).

There are two warnings that remain cannot be suppressed safely; see LANG-571

> @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") is used in several places on entire methods.
> Mostly there is no documentation as to why it is safe to ignore the warnings.
> Seems to me the annotation should be used as close as possible to the site of 
> the warning, and the reason should be documented, so it can be revisited if 
> there is a code change later.
> In fact, at least one of the warnings is NOT safe to ignore:
> String[] s = ArrayUtils.add((String[])null, null);
> generates a ClassCastException, which should not happen if the warning is OK 
> to ignore.
