less: fix changelog commit message flowing into the labels that are floating to the right of it

For long commit messages, two texts were shown on top of each other and none of
them could be read.

To fix that, give the floating labels a solid white background.

To avoid a hard cut-off of the commit message, use a white box-shadow to the
left of the labels to give a smooth transition.

To avoid the commit message flowing into the td padding to the right of the
labels, make log-container hide overflow.

==================
Repository locking
==================

Kallithea has a *repository locking* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, every initial clone and every pull gives users (with write permission)
the exclusive right to do a push.

When repository locking is enabled, repositories get a ``locked`` flag.
The hg/git commands ``hg/git clone``, ``hg/git pull``,
and ``hg/git push`` influence this state:

- A ``clone`` or ``pull`` action locks the target repository
  if the user has write/admin permissions on this repository.

- Kallithea will remember the user who locked the repository so only this
  specific user can unlock the repo by performing a ``push``
  command.

- Every other command on a locked repository from this user and every command
  from any other user will result in an HTTP return code 423 (Locked).
  Additionally, the HTTP error will mention the user that locked the repository
  (e.g., “repository <repo> locked by user <user>”).

Each repository can be manually unlocked by an administrator from the
repository settings menu.
