StringEscapeUtils should expose escape*() methods taking Writer argument
------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: LANG-260
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-260
     Project: Commons Lang
        Type: Improvement

 Environment: N/A
    Reporter: Norbert Reilly


StringEscapeUtils.escapeXML(String) is the only exposed variant, but the 
package private Entities.XML class it uses under the covers has a variant 
taking a Writer. The StringEscapeUtils.escapeXML(Writer, String) variant would 
be much more efficient when incrementally escaping values and adding them 
one-by-one and could seemingly be exposed with very little effort. Ditto for 
the unescapeXML() case, and presumably other styles of escape/unescape (like 
HTML) that use the Entities class under the covers.
