JUnitIncompatibleType on 2.27.0 throws ClassCastException for com.sun.tools.javac.code.Type$TypeVar around assertArrayEquals

[XN137]

thanks for dealing with #4291 but sadly even after that fix in 2.27.0 our code base still hits a compile error in this check:

problematic code snippet:

  protected <T> void runCircularTest(Format<T> format, T original) throws IOException {
    final Serializer<T, byte[]> serializer = getSerializer(format);

    final String outJson = serializer.toJson(original);
    final T backJson = serializer.fromJson(outJson);

    if (original instanceof byte[]) {
      assertArrayEquals((byte[]) original, (byte[]) backJson);  // <-- error happens here
    } else {
      assertEquals(original, backJson);
    }
  }

code:

protected void assertArraysEquals(String message, Object expected, Object actual) {
    (...)

    } else if (expected instanceof float[] && actual instanceof float[]) {
      assertArrayEquals(message, (float[]) expected, (float[]) actual, DELTA);  // <-- error happens here
    } else if (expected instanceof double[] && actual instanceof double[]) {
      assertArrayEquals(message, (double[]) expected, (double[]) actual, DELTA);
    }

(i am guessing it would also fail at the double[] assertion
