[issue2578] additional unittest type equality methods

[Michael Foord]

Michael Foord <michael at voidspace.org.uk> added the comment:

No - you catch self.failureException rather than AssertionError directly.

I use unittest precisely because of the rich failure information from
the assert methods - particularly the new ones in this patch!
