> I added a new equals method the StringUtils that allows users to call one common method to determine whether two Strings are equal.
> In other words, instead of calling 
>         StringUtils.equals( x, y) for case sensitive comparisons
>     and
>         StringUtils.equalsIgnoreCase( x, y ) for case-insensitive comparisons
>     my addition allows a user to simple call
>         StringUtils.equals( x, y, true) for case-sensitive comparisons
>     or
>         StringUtils.equals(x,y, false) for case-insensitive comparisons
>     I believe this will be cleaner, and much easier to read than having two different method calls.
