> Creating Utils class BigDecimalUtils and offering a new implementation of 
> method equals() in ObjectUtils.
> Quoting the javaDoc from BigDecimalUtils:
> Provides some extra functionality over the BigDecimal class type Comparing 
> two different BigDecimals may be tricky, because yet the value is same, the 
> format may differ and then the equals method implemented on BigDecimal does 
> not return expected results.
>    BigDecimal first = new BigDecimal("0.10");
>    BigDecimal second = new BigDecimal("0.100");
>    
> first.equals(second); will return false, because those two numbers are not 
> using the same format, even though the values are both "0.1".
>   Usage examples:
>   Compare a number to 1: if(BigDecimalUtils.equals(someNumber, 
> BigDecimal.ONE))
>   compare two numbers whether they are the same value or both null: 
> if(BigDecimalUtils.equals(someNumber, anotherNumber, NullsEquality.EQUALS))
