DisplayText class, used in CertificatePolicies X509 V3 extensions (in policy qualifiers).

It stores a string in a chosen encoding. 

DisplayText ::= CHOICE {
     ia5String        IA5String      (SIZE (1..200)),
     visibleString    VisibleString  (SIZE (1..200)),
     bmpString        BMPString      (SIZE (1..200)),
     utf8String       UTF8String     (SIZE (1..200)) }
