      com.sun.source.doctree.EntityTree provides a representation of an entity found in a doc comment, but does not provide any way to get the corresponding characters represented by the entity.

      We should add a method to the DocTrees utility class to access the characters, if the entity is valid, or null if not.

          String getCharacters(EntityTree tree)
