More explanation on equality, identity and dump across Object, SimpleNumber, SequenceableCollection and String
Purpose and Motivation
The explanations on equality, identity and dumping are too short. If I remember correctly, there were some questions about this, including some of mine:
https://scsynth.org/t/understanding-the-result-of-dump-low-level-data-for-float-hexadecimal-for-string-gc-fmt-flg-and-set/8553/3
I have added explanations that are as detailed as possible and as simple as possible for those new to SuperCollider without programming experience. Please let me correct the updated information if the content is wrong. I also do not mind if someone opens a new PR using this one, because I am not sure about my English. If someone wants to close it with their own PR, I will be happy to close it too!
Thanks to @jamshark70 and @mossheim!

Thank you for your kind and valuable feedback!
The added sections in String.schelp and SequenceableCollection.schelp are very similar in form. However, I have left some tables in the Identity section in SequenceableCollection.schelp because I think the readability of the corresponding section in String.schelp is not so good. Please compare them and give me feedback.

@prko I won't get to this anytime soon, if you need a quick review please find someone else to do it. :)
@mossheim It is not urgent! I have very little experience with this, and I pressed the re-request to inform you that I did your change request. I can wait until you or someone else can review it. Thanks!
Ok, all good, thanks for your patience
I can wait until you or someone else can review it. Thanks!
