Type aliasing Java classes with statics

Although this works in pure Scala for a class + companion object, it's not possible with Java's static methods, as these don't belong to any interface.

Scala could, in theory, create an object containing delegates to all the static methods of some class, but it doesn't do this currently. It's also possible to write a compiler plugin for this if you feel comfortable writing plugins.

Failing that, you'll either have to create an object full of delegates yourself, or just cherry-pick a few methods and pass them around as functions.
