/**
Formats strings such that certain characters are
"blocked out". For example, the string "1234" can be formatted to
display "XX34".
This formatter uses a format string to format string values. This format
string supports the following syntax:
D - display a character as is
X - replaces the character with the cross out character
The string value is right justified relative to the format. Any excess
characters are trimmed away. If the format string is longer than the
value, then the value will be padded by the format string's characters.
So, for example, if the format "XXD" with blockoutChar "*" is applied to
"12345", the user will see "**5".
