* A function proxy for methods. By default, JavaScript methods do not maintain scope, so passing a method as a
* callback will result in the method getting called in the scope of the caller. Using a proxy ensures that the
* method gets called in the correct scope.
*
* Additional arguments can be passed that will be applied to the function when it is called.
*
* <h4>Example</h4>
*
* myObject.addEventListener("event", createjs.proxy(myHandler, this, arg1, arg2));
*
* function myHandler(arg1, arg2) {
* // This gets called when myObject.myCallback is executed.
* }
*
* @method proxy
* @param {Function} method The function to call
* @param {Object} scope The scope to call the method name on
* @param {mixed} [arg] * Arguments that are appended to the callback for additional params.
