Kotlin Object Method Calls From Java

[DK96-OS]

Using object methods from Java code requires an extra INSTANCE keyword. This shows that these generated methods are not actually static.

The original intent behind using object keyword in this library was to contain static methods.

One known challenge with converting certain Lists objects to Java is the default arguments of some methods. Defaults are not supported in Java 11.

These will have to be replaced with overloaded methods.

The Numbers module has made good progress on this issue. It is a time consuming process, however, and will not be prioritized.
