    Hi RamAnvesh,
    
    thanks for the pull request.
    
    There are already a lot of test for `StringUtils#equals` here 
https://github.com/RamAnvesh/commons-lang/blob/master/src/test/java/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringUtilsEqualsIndexOfTest.java#L558


> StringUtils#equals fails with Index OOBE on non-Strings with identical 
> leading prefix

> StringUtils.equals(cs1,cs2) delegates to CharSequence.regionMatches(...) in a 
> way that causes IndexOutOfBounds when either of cs1/cs2 isn't a String.
> Specifically, comparing "foo" and "foobar" for non-String CharSequences bombs 
> due to CharSequenceUtils.regionMatches(cs1, false, 0, cs2, 0, 
> Math.max(cs1.length(), cs2.length())) because regionMatches doesn't check for 
> input exhaustion.
