Make sure array containers handle `__eq__` reasonably about arraycontext HOT 2 CLOSED

I'm still trying to wrap my head around array containers and the issue mentioned here, but: is there a way to customize how a given array container type behaves with respect to ==? In some cases it makes sense to return an array containing elementwise equality results, but in other cases, especially with scalar-like array containers like DOFArray, I'd be tempted to say that a == b should return a single value (i.e., there should be an implicit all()).

Good question. Post #52, you can request two behaviors:

• eq_comparison == True will do the numpy thing: you get a new container full of arrays/containers with truth values.
  Then we just need an all workalike, which conceivably actx.np.all could be. (Though for testing purposes we probably also want something that asserts structural equality and doesn't broadcast.)
• eq_comparison == False, which has __eq__ returning NotImplemented, which results in no two containers ever comparing equal.
