It's a bit heavy to cite a JLS section in the summary of a method.
Recommend:
"Returns a string whose value is this string, with escape sequences
translated as if in a string literal." [Not mentioning text blocks for
simplicity. Plus, if you mention them, then it looks like you forgot
character literals.]
@jls 3.10.7 Escape Sequences [note the new shorter name]
@deprecated This method is associated with text blocks, a preview
language feature. Text blocks and/or this method may be changed or
removed in a future release. [Also for stripIndent]

Text Blocks, by translating escape sequences in the text block content.
Thank you.
