Status in Physical Quantities for Python: Fix Committed

Bug description:
Quantity.units returns a Dimensionality class which does not implement an equality operator.

>>> from quantities import *
>>> x = 10.4 * miles
>>> y = 10.4 * miles
>>> x.units == y.units        # clearly we would want this to work
False
>>> type(x.units)
<class 'quantities.dimensionality.Dimensionality'>
