Improve the class example for several languages.

Fix numerous inaccuracies in index.html (where it exists) and eliminate
unnecessary differences between the example code being wrapped.

<li>This high-level interface using proxy classes is not the only way to handle C++ code.
A low level interface using c functions to access member variables and member functions is the alternative SWIG
approach. This entails passing around the c pointer or c++ 'this' pointer and as such it is not difficult to crash the JVM.

The abstraction of the underlying pointer by the java proxy classes far better fits the java programming paradigm.

<li>SWIG *does* know how to properly perform upcasting of objects in an inheritance
<li>SWIG <b>does</b> know how to properly perform upcasting of objects in an inheritance
hierarchy (including multiple inheritance). However Java classes can only derive from one base class so multiple inheritance
is not implemented. Java classes can implement more than one interface so there is scope for improvement in the future.
<p>
<li>A wide variety of C++ features are not currently supported by SWIG. Here is the
short and incomplete list:
<p>
<ul>
<li>Overloaded methods and functions. SWIG wrappers don't know how to resolve name
conflicts so you must give an alternative name to any overloaded method name using the
%name directive like this:
<blockquote>
<pre>
void foo(int a);
%name(foo2) void foo(double a, double b);
</pre>
</blockquote>
<p>
<li>Overloaded operators. Not supported at all. The only workaround for this is
to write a helper function. For example:
<blockquote>
<pre>
%inline %{
Vector *vector_add(Vector *a, Vector *b) {
... whatever ...
}
%}
</pre>
</blockquote>
<p>
<li>Namespaces. Not supported at all. Won't be supported until SWIG2.0 (if at all).
