toBeInstanceOf() Expectation handle Java classes

Description

This code fails on a Java object that comes back from the Couchbase API:

ColdFusion's isInstanceOf() method appears to only work for Java objects that are created with createObject or CFObject per the docs here:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/8/htmldocs/help.html?content=functions_in-k_17.html

See if there is a way to detect Java objects and use .getClass().getName() to determine their type.

Note, that won't cover Java inheritance.

Yea, I think a separate method is best. Go for it if you like just tag tis
for the 1.1.0 RC tag

Perhaps we need to create a toBeJavaInstanceOf() expectation that will be
guaranteed to work on Java classes since the toBeInstanceOf() expectation
is spotty in when it will work.

Thanks!

Well, if you could simply detect that it's a Java class, then treat them all the same way.

For that, maybe a custom expectations would be the way to go.
