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.

Repository statistics
=====================
Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.
The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.
When Celery is disabled:
On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.
Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
updating its statistics cache.
When Celery is enabled:
On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
task.
