/// This interface represents an entity, either parsed or unparsed, in an XML
/// document. Note that this models the entity itself not the entity declaration.
/// Entity declaration modeling has been left for a later Level of the DOM
/// specification.
///
/// The nodeName attribute that is inherited from Node contains the name of
/// the entity.
///
/// An XML processor may choose to completely expand entities before the structure
/// model is passed to the DOM; in this case there will be no EntityReference
/// nodes in the document tree.
///
/// XML does not mandate that a non-validating XML processor read and process
/// entity declarations made in the external subset or declared in external
/// parameter entities. This means that parsed entities declared in the external
/// subset need not be expanded by some classes of applications, and that the
/// replacement value of the entity may not be available. When the replacement
/// value is available, the corresponding Entity node's child list represents
/// the structure of that replacement text. Otherwise, the child list is empty.
///
/// The resolution of the children of the Entity (the replacement value) may
/// be lazily evaluated; actions by the user (such as calling the childNodes
/// method on the Entity Node) are assumed to trigger the evaluation.
///
/// The DOM Level 1 does not support editing Entity nodes; if a user wants to
/// make changes to the contents of an Entity, every related EntityReference
/// node has to be replaced in the structure model by a clone of the Entity's
/// contents, and then the desired changes must be made to each of those clones
/// instead. Entity nodes and all their descendants are readonly.
///
/// An Entity node does not have any parent.
