GET /entity/{id}/benefactor

Get an Entity's benefactor.

The term 'benefactor' is used indicate which Entity an Entity inherits is ACL from. For example, a newly created Project will have its own ACL and therefore, it will be its own benefactor. A Folder will inherit its ACL (by default) from its containing Project so the Project will be the Folder's benefactor. This method will return the EntityHeader of an Entity's benefactor.
