Would it make more sense for the default impl to throw
`UnsupportedOperationException` or maybe call `getEntry(alias, null)`?
Otherwise, an application cannot know the difference between an alias that has
no attributes and an alias that has attributes but is from a `KeyStore` impl
that has not overridden the corresponding Spi method.
