Compares two strings using the case-sensitivity rule.
<p>
This method mimics {@link String#equals} but takes case-sensitivity
into account.

@param str1  the first string to compare, not null
@param str2  the second string to compare, not null
@return true if equal using the case rules
@throws NullPointerException if either string is null
