Offers text-related APIs

Description

Features

• XWikiToStringBuilder: Make it easy to generate a toString() implementation using Commons Lang ToStringBuilder customized to fit XWiki's coding style. For example:
  @Override
  public String toString()
  {
      ToStringBuilder builder = new XWikiToStringBuilder(this);
      builder.append("implementation", getImplementation() == null ? null : getImplementation().getName());
      builder.append("instantiation", getInstantiationStrategy());
     return builder.toString();
  }
• [since 6.2] org.xwiki.text.StringUtils: extends org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils with new useful methods. In 6.2 it comes with:
      /**
       * An attempt to make doubling a character (usually for escaping purposes) as fast as it can be.
       *
       * @param str the string to modify
       * @param c the character to double
       * @return the modified string
       */
     public static String doubleChar(final String str, final char c)
