This causes „<„ and „>“ to be displayed in the browser instead of being interpreted as HTML tag if a generic link target can’t be resolved. This is potentially problematic since @see and @link can contain plain HTML content, but I think it’s ok since those cases are handled further up in HtmlDocletWriter.seeTagToContent.

Although the nature of the text is not well specified, it is a 
significant behavioral change to make this change if it affects any 
existing (valid) uses of '@see' and '@link'.   I will look at this in 
more detail as part of the review.
