Add check for unused fields

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be awesome if EqualsVerifier could check for non-transient fields that 
are not used in the definition of "equals".  Frequently I use Eclipse to 
autogenerate equals/hashCode, but I might forget to re-generate after adding a 
new field.  

A suggested implementation and unit tests:

I will probably add this in the next version.

I've added this feature to version 1.1, which is available now!

I did deviate from your proposed solution a little bit though: I decided to 
name the method "allFieldsShouldBeUsed()" instead of "checkUnusedFields()", 
because I thing that name is a bit more expressive.
