TST: GH4604, reindexing with a method of 'ffill' gives incorrect results

BUG/CLN: (GH4604) Refactor Series.reindex to core/generic.py allow method= in reindexing
  on a Series to work

API/CLN: GH4604 Infer and downcast dtype if appropriate on ffill/bfill
  this is for consistency when doing: df.reindex().ffill() and df.reindex(method='ffill')

CLN: allow backfill/pad/interpolate to operate on integers (by float conversion)
     provide downcasting back to original dtype where needed core.internals.interpolate

ENH: provide core.index.identical method to compare values and attributes similar to .equals
