ClassName proxy classes has includes '\' in front of namespace while other don't

The classname given to the EntityPersister by the ProxyFactory includes a backslash '\' in front of the namespace while normal classes and the proxy itself don't have this. This issue causes it impossible to persist proxyclasses, because of the string comparison in UnitOfWork::executeUpdates in the statement [ get_parent_class($entity) == $className ] this will do 'some\namespace\someclass' == '\some\namespace\someclass'

Aftter some debugging work it seems the '\' is trimmed of when getting the ClassMetadata while this isn't done when a the proxyfactory creates the proxy. So it is probably fixed by placing:

$className = ltrim($className, '\');

at the start of ProxyFactory::getProxy where '\' is actually a double backslash but that cannot be posted here
