repos: introduce low level slug check of repo and group names

The high level web forms already slug-ify repo and repo group names. It might
thus not create the exact repo that was created, but the name will be "safe".

For API, we would rather have it fail than not doing exactly what was requested.

Thus, always verify at low level that the provided name wouldn't be modified by
slugification. This makes sure the API provide allow the same actual names as
the web UI.

This will only influence creation and renaming of repositories and repo groups.
Existing repositories will continue working as before.

This is a slight API change, but it makes the system more stable and can
prevent some security issues - especially XSS attacks.

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
