docs: Parse a VALUE element and return its text content as a unicode string.
          Whitespace is preserved.
  
          The conversion of the text representation of the value to a CIM data
          type object requires CIM type information which is not available on the
          VALUE element and therefore will be done when parsing higher level
          elements that have that information.
