Returns a plain-text version of the markup contained by the content, with tags removed but HTML entities encoded.

content = ActionText::Content.new("<h1>Funny times!</h1>")
content.to_plain_text # => "Funny times!"

content = ActionText::Content.new("<div onclick='action()'>safe<script>unsafe</script></div>")
content.to_plain_text # => "safeunsafe"

NOTE: that the returned string is not HTML safe and should not be rendered in browsers.
