* Swaps the case of a String changing upper and title case to

* <ul>
* <li>Upper case character converts to Lower case</li>
* <li>Title case character converts to Lower case</li>
* <li>Lower case character converts to Upper case</li>
* </ul>
*
* For a word based algorithm, see {@link WordUtils#swapCase(String)}.
* A <code>null</code> input String returns <code>null</code>.
*
* <pre>
* StringUtils.swapCase(null) = null
* StringUtils.swapCase("") = ""
* StringUtils.swapCase("The dog has a BONE") = "tHE DOG HAS A bone"
* </pre>
*
* NOTE: This method changed in Lang version 2.0.
* It no longer performs a word based algorithm.
* If you only use ASCII, you will notice no change.
* That functionality is available in WordUtils.
*
* @param str the String to swap case, may be null
* @return the changed String, <code>null</code> if null String input
