Floatingpoint equality checks using Double.equals and Float.equals do not trigger warnings

[Kai Ebenhöh]

Hi,

the code:

double someDouble = 0.0d;
if( Double.valueOf(0.0).equals(someDouble) ){
  ...
}

does not trigger a sonar warning.

Since Javas Double.equals uses Double.doubleToLongBits, it's just as unsafe for comparing floatingpoint numbers as the == equality check.
