Return the character of the representation.
EXAMPLES:
The trivial character::
sage: rho = SymmetricGroupRepresentation([3])
sage: chi = rho.to_character(); chi
Character of Symmetric group of order 3! as a permutation group
sage: chi.values()
[1, 1, 1]
sage: all(chi(g) == 1 for g in SymmetricGroup(3))
True
The sign character::
sage: rho = SymmetricGroupRepresentation([1,1,1])
sage: chi = rho.to_character(); chi
Character of Symmetric group of order 3! as a permutation group
sage: chi.values()
[1, -1, 1]
sage: all(chi(g) == g.sign() for g in SymmetricGroup(3))
True

sage: triv = SymmetricGroupRepresentation([4])
sage: hook = SymmetricGroupRepresentation([3,1])
sage: def_rep = lambda p : triv(p).block_sum(hook(p)).trace()
