The selected element in a radiocheckboxlist is incorrect

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I see this issue with version 2.0.3. The selectedIndex in the RadioCheckBoxList 
is different from checkedIndex in this case. The checkedIndex value is right. 
But to retrieve the selected element I have to use getSelectedItem() which is 
coming from AbstractListBox. I think the best thing is to override these 
methods and return the checkedIndex when requesting the selectedItemIndex. This 
way getSelectedItem() would return the item selected based on the checkedIndex.

Another option would be to just add to new method getCheckedItem which uses 
checkedIndex.

Hm, yes, there's a bit of terminology confusion here, as AbstractListBox 
exposes the "select" field as which item is currently highlighted where as the 
"selected" item in the RadioCheckListBox context would intuitively indicate 
which item has been actively selected. Now, I want to be careful not to break 
API compatibility (for once!), so I've gone with your second suggestion; adding 
a getCheckedItem() method to RadioCheckListBox.

I've committed this to 2.0.x, 2.1.x and default branches and deployed snapshot 
to sonatype. If you have a chance, please give it a try.

I'll keep this issue open for now though, I think we need to rethink 
terminology and which methods to expose from AbstractListBox on the default 
branch. This issue ticket should serve as a reminder.

Yeah. The change in the SNAPSHOT looks good.

Would you be able to release just the 2.0.X version with this fix ? I am 
running tight on my schedule to get this working where I cant use the SNAPSHOT 
version. Thanks.
