/**
 * A map entry which forwards all its method calls to another map entry.
 * Subclasses should override one or more methods to modify the behavior of the
 * backing map entry as desired per the <a
 * href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decorator_pattern">decorator pattern</a>.
 * <p>
 * <p><i>Warning:</i> The methods of {@code ForwardingMapEntry} forward
 * <i>indiscriminately</i> to the methods of the delegate. For example,
 * overriding {@link #getValue} alone <i>will not</i> change the behavior of
 * {@link #equals}, which can lead to unexpected behavior. In this case, you
 * should override {@code equals} as well, either providing your own
 * implementation, or delegating to the provided {@code standardEquals} method.
 * <p>
 * <p>Each of the {@code standard} methods, where appropriate, use {@link
 * Objects#equal} to test equality for both keys and values. This may not be
 * the desired behavior for map implementations that use non-standard notions of
 * key equality, such as the entry of a {@code SortedMap} whose comparator is
 * not consistent with {@code equals}.
 * <p>
 * <p>The {@code standard} methods are not guaranteed to be thread-safe, even
 * when all of the methods that they depend on are thread-safe.
