/**
 * The {@code Properties} class represents a persistent set of
 * properties. The {@code Properties} can be saved to a stream
 * or loaded from a stream. Each key and its corresponding value in
 * the property list is a string.
 * <p>
 * A property list can contain another property list as its
 * "defaults"; this second property list is searched if
 * the property key is not found in the original property list.
 * <p>
 * Because {@code Properties} inherits from {@code Hashtable}, the
 * {@code put} and {@code putAll} methods can be applied to a
 * {@code Properties} object.  Their use is strongly discouraged as they
 * allow the caller to insert entries whose keys or values are not
 * {@code Strings}.  The {@code setProperty} method should be used
 * instead.  If the {@code store} or {@code save} method is called
 * on a "compromised" {@code Properties} object that contains a
 * non-{@code String} key or value, the call will fail. Similarly,
 * the call to the {@code propertyNames} or {@code list} method
 * will fail if it is called on a "compromised" {@code Properties}
 * object that contains a non-{@code String} key.
 *
 * <p>
 * The iterators returned by the {@code iterator} method of this class's
 * "collection views" (that is, {@code entrySet()}, {@code keySet()}, and
 * {@code values()}) may not fail-fast (unlike the Hashtable implementation).
 * These iterators are guaranteed to traverse elements as they existed upon
 * construction exactly once, and may (but are not guaranteed to) reflect any
 * modifications subsequent to construction.
 * <p>
 * The {@link #load(java.io.Reader) load(Reader)} {@code /}
 * {@link #store(java.io.Writer, java.lang.String) store(Writer, String)}
 * methods load and store properties from and to a character based stream
 * in a simple line-oriented format specified below.
 *
 * The {@link #load(java.io.InputStream) load(InputStream)} {@code /}
 * {@link #store(java.io.OutputStream, java.lang.String) store(OutputStream, String)}
 * methods work the same way as the load(Reader)/store(Writer, String) pair, except
 * the input/output stream is encoded in ISO 8859-1 character encoding.
 * Characters that cannot be directly represented in this encoding can be written using
 * Unicode escapes as defined in section {@jls 3.3} of
 * <cite>The Java Language Specification</cite>;
 * only a single 'u' character is allowed in an escape
 * sequence.
 *
 * <p> The {@link #loadFromXML(InputStream)} and {@link
 * #storeToXML(OutputStream, String, String)} methods load and store properties
 * in a simple XML format.  By default the UTF-8 character encoding is used,
 * however a specific encoding may be specified if required. Implementations
 * are required to support UTF-8 and UTF-16 and may support other encodings.
 * An XML properties document has the following DOCTYPE declaration:
 *
 * <pre>
 * &lt;!DOCTYPE properties SYSTEM "http://java.sun.com/dtd/properties.dtd"&gt;
 * </pre>
 * Note that the system URI (http://java.sun.com/dtd/properties.dtd) is
 * <i>not</i> accessed when exporting or importing properties; it merely
 * serves as a string to uniquely identify the DTD, which is:
 * <pre>
 *    &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
 *
 *    &lt;!-- DTD for properties --&gt;
 *
 *    &lt;!ELEMENT properties ( comment?, entry* ) &gt;
 *
 *    &lt;!ATTLIST properties version CDATA #FIXED "1.0"&gt;
 *
 *    &lt;!ELEMENT comment (#PCDATA) &gt;
 *
 *    &lt;!ELEMENT entry (#PCDATA) &gt;
 *
 *    &lt;!ATTLIST entry key CDATA #REQUIRED&gt;
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>This class is thread-safe: multiple threads can share a single
 * {@code Properties} object without the need for external synchronization.
 *
 * @apiNote
 * The {@code Properties} class does not inherit the concept of a load factor
 * from its superclass, {@code Hashtable}.

    /**
     * Reads a property list (key and element pairs) from the input
     * character stream in a simple line-oriented format.
     * <p>
     * Properties are processed in terms of lines. There are two
     * kinds of line, <i>natural lines</i> and <i>logical lines</i>.
     * A natural line is defined as a line of
     * characters that is terminated either by a set of line terminator
     * characters ({@code \n} or {@code \r} or {@code \r\n})
     * or by the end of the stream. A natural line may be either a blank line,
     * a comment line, or hold all or some of a key-element pair. A logical
     * line holds all the data of a key-element pair, which may be spread
     * out across several adjacent natural lines by escaping
     * the line terminator sequence with a backslash character
     * {@code \}.  Note that a comment line cannot be extended
     * in this manner; every natural line that is a comment must have
     * its own comment indicator, as described below. Lines are read from
     * input until the end of the stream is reached.
     *
     * <p>
     * A natural line that contains only white space characters is
     * considered blank and is ignored.  A comment line has an ASCII
     * {@code '#'} or {@code '!'} as its first non-white
     * space character; comment lines are also ignored and do not
     * encode key-element information.  In addition to line
     * terminators, this format considers the characters space
     * ({@code ' '}, {@code '\u005Cu0020'}), tab
     * ({@code '\t'}, {@code '\u005Cu0009'}), and form feed
     * ({@code '\f'}, {@code '\u005Cu000C'}) to be white
     * space.
     *
     * <p>
     * If a logical line is spread across several natural lines, the
     * backslash escaping the line terminator sequence, the line
     * terminator sequence, and any white space at the start of the
     * following line have no affect on the key or element values.
     * The remainder of the discussion of key and element parsing
     * (when loading) will assume all the characters constituting
     * the key and element appear on a single natural line after
     * line continuation characters have been removed.  Note that
     * it is <i>not</i> sufficient to only examine the character
     * preceding a line terminator sequence to decide if the line
     * terminator is escaped; there must be an odd number of
     * contiguous backslashes for the line terminator to be escaped.
     * Since the input is processed from left to right, a
     * non-zero even number of 2<i>n</i> contiguous backslashes
     * before a line terminator (or elsewhere) encodes <i>n</i>
     * backslashes after escape processing.
     *
     * <p>
     * The key contains all of the characters in the line starting
     * with the first non-white space character and up to, but not
     * including, the first unescaped {@code '='},
     * {@code ':'}, or white space character other than a line
     * terminator. All of these key termination characters may be
     * included in the key by escaping them with a preceding backslash
     * character; for example,<p>
     *
     * {@code \:\=}<p>
     *
     * would be the two-character key {@code ":="}.  Line
     * terminator characters can be included using {@code \r} and
     * {@code \n} escape sequences.  Any white space after the
     * key is skipped; if the first non-white space character after
     * the key is {@code '='} or {@code ':'}, then it is
     * ignored and any white space characters after it are also
     * skipped.  All remaining characters on the line become part of
     * the associated element string; if there are no remaining
     * characters, the element is the empty string
     * {@code ""}.  Once the raw character sequences
     * constituting the key and element are identified, escape
     * processing is performed as described above.
     *
     * <p>
     * As an example, each of the following three lines specifies the key
     * {@code "Truth"} and the associated element value
     * {@code "Beauty"}:
     * <pre>
     * Truth = Beauty
     *  Truth:Beauty
     * Truth                    :Beauty
     * </pre>
     * As another example, the following three lines specify a single
     * property:
     * <pre>
     * fruits                           apple, banana, pear, \
     *                                  cantaloupe, watermelon, \
     *                                  kiwi, mango
     * </pre>
     * The key is {@code "fruits"} and the associated element is:
     * <pre>"apple, banana, pear, cantaloupe, watermelon, kiwi, mango"</pre>
     * Note that a space appears before each {@code \} so that a space
     * will appear after each comma in the final result; the {@code \},
     * line terminator, and leading white space on the continuation line are
     * merely discarded and are <i>not</i> replaced by one or more other
     * characters.
     * <p>
     * As a third example, the line:
     * <pre>cheeses
     * </pre>
     * specifies that the key is {@code "cheeses"} and the associated
     * element is the empty string {@code ""}.
     * <p>
     * <a id="unicodeescapes"></a>
     * Characters in keys and elements can be represented in escape
     * sequences similar to those used for character and string literals
     * (see sections {@jls 3.3} and {@jls 3.10.6} of
     * <cite>The Java Language Specification</cite>).
     *
     * The differences from the character escape sequences and Unicode
     * escapes used for characters and strings are:
     *
     * <ul>
     * <li> Octal escapes are not recognized.
     *
     * <li> The character sequence {@code \b} does <i>not</i>
     * represent a backspace character.
     *
     * <li> The method does not treat a backslash character,
     * {@code \}, before a non-valid escape character as an
     * error; the backslash is silently dropped.  For example, in a
     * Java string the sequence {@code "\z"} would cause a
     * compile time error.  In contrast, this method silently drops
     * the backslash.  Therefore, this method treats the two character
     * sequence {@code "\b"} as equivalent to the single
     * character {@code 'b'}.
     *
     * <li> Escapes are not necessary for single and double quotes;
     * however, by the rule above, single and double quote characters
     * preceded by a backslash still yield single and double quote
     * characters, respectively.
     *
     * <li> Only a single 'u' character is allowed in a Unicode escape
     * sequence.
     *
     * </ul>
     * <p>
     * The specified stream remains open after this method returns.
     *
     * @param   reader   the input character stream.
     * @throws  IOException  if an error occurred when reading from the
