Clients of `StandardDoclet` will normally be calling the interface method, which is unchanged. There should be few, if any, subtypes of `StandardDoclet`, and for those, the change is source compatible.

Summary
Fix the signature of the return type StandardDoclet.getSupportedOptions
to include a missing wildcard.
Problem
The signature of Doclet.getSupportedOptions
uses a wildcard in the return type.
Set<? extends Doclet.Option> getSupportedOptions()
There is an overriding method in StandardDoclet
, but it incorrectly omits the wildcard, this forcing a more restrictive return type.
public Set<Doclet.Option> getSupportedOptions()
Solution
Fix the return type.
