Add sameInstanceAs() alias for sameInstance() factory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

OK, this is pretty minor, but I find that "is(sameInstance(obj))" reads 
kinda funny, and prefer something like "is(sameInstanceAs(obj))", which I 
have been using as a custom factory in my projects for a few months now. 
Just thought I would share and see if anyone else likes it. Another option 
might be "is(theInstance(obj))", which is shorter but still reads well.

Not that you couldn't write it about 5 seconds, but here's the code, if you 
want it:

    @Factory
    public static <T> Matcher<T> sameInstanceAs(T object) {
        return IsSame.sameInstance(object);
    }

(shortened to just "return sameInstance(object)" if put into IsSame class).
