Transform GenUtils to the real util-class

this was originally done to simplify mocking and debug. Also it helps to use it in templates. Please view at the https://github.com/yandex-qatools/hamcrest-pojo-matcher-generator/blob/master/feature-matcher-generator/src/main/resources/templates/method.vm#L6 with${utils.normalize(${field.name()})}

Does it works fine with class reference instead of object?

I'm not sure that it is necessary to mock this class.. It doesn't have an integration with some complex components.

Yes, it works fine with Velocity engine: http://velocity.apache.org/engine/devel/developer-guide.html#supportforstaticclasses
