## TODO
* `String::lower`, `String::equals`, `String::add`
* Boxing and unboxing for `String`s
* Handle boxing/unboxing when overriding method in supertype with more/less
specific return types/arguments. For instance, if an interface defines a
method that returns `Object`, then a subtype may override that method
returning `Integer`. We want `Integer` to be unboxed (in general),
so that calling the method on the subtype returns an unboxed `Integer`,
but if the caller is calling the method on the supertype, it will expect
an `Object`, meaning it will need to be boxed. This probably means having
two overloads -- one for the supertype, one for the subtype.
This needs doing regardless of changes to boxing/unboxing primitives since
we currently use raw strings rather than boxing them into Java strings.
