Adding createStandardService method to MBeanFactory

This initial version of the patch adds createStandarService method. However I
am having some issues with the usage of the MBean with respect to MBeanFactory.
In the case of MBeanFactory both the managed resource and the associated MBean
are MBeanFactory instances. But only resource MBeanFactory object is properly
populated with a reference to the Server in its container field. The associated
MBean instance which gets registered in the MBean Server (created by JMX
infrastructure) doesn't get populated with this field since it is being created
using reflection in createMBean() method in ManagedBean class. 

Now when the MBean createStandardService method is invoked using JMX (which
depends on container field being properly set - in this case the reference to
the single Server instance) the MBean and not the managed resource is invoked
causing a null pointer exception. The below code snippet in BaseModelBean
causes the above behaviour.

// Invoke the selected method on the appropriate object
Object result = null;
try {
    if( method.getDeclaringClass().isAssignableFrom( this.getClass()) ) {
       result = method.invoke(this, params );
    } else {
       result = method.invoke(resource, params);
    }
}

Here as can be seen the precedence is given to the MBean object instead of the
associated resource object. Can somebody comment on the reason for the above
logic? 

To get the resource MBeanFactory instance invoked I have included a check as
follows in the above condition which I think is not the way to go.

 if( method.getDeclaringClass().isAssignableFrom( this.getClass())
         && !method.getDeclaringClass().equals(this.getClass()) ) {

Any ideas on this issue?
