Properly handle Object methods in AutoBeanFactory in the JVM This fixes a ClassCastException when calling #toString(): the factory handler assumed any method other than the ones explicitly handled would be returning a parameterized type (AutoBean<Foo>). Additionally it also makes it possible to invoke #hashCode() and #equals(). Change-Id: I140c9b2c56ed2e632a06433d38c3e1daaea11025
