Missing YAML::Node equality operator

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
YAML::Load("{[0o13]:{a:0, b:1}").equals(YAML::Load("{[0xB]:{b:1, a:0}"))

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
true. compilation error.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.5.1

Please provide any additional information below.
YAML 1.2 recognizes identity and equality as separate concepts as per 
http://www.yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2764652

yaml-cpp currently implements identity using Node::is, but is missing an 
equality checking operator for use in deep content-based comparisons.

See Issue 60. Equality depends on schema, which is not one of yaml-cpp's 
better-defined concepts.
