Bug 1002093

Description of problem:
When user write it's own external balancer method, then balancing is never
called because of ClassCastException.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
is11

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
0. install ovirt-scheduler-proxy
1. Add balancer from addition info to /usr/share/ovirt-scheduler-proxy/plugins
2. rhevm-config -s ExternalSchedulerEnabled=true
3. service ovirt-scheduler-proxy start && service ovirt-engine restart
4. Create cluster policy and assing it external balancer.
5. Have at least 2 hosts in cluster, create and run vm.

Actual results:
Balance function doesn't take effect

Expected results:
Balance function is called properly.

Additional info:
Used ovirt-scheduler-proxy rpm build from current upstream.
After timeout to call balancing method is invoked, then this ERROR appears in engine.log
