auth: strip RFC4007 zone identifiers from IPv6 addresses before doing access control
If using IPv6, the request IP address might contain a '%' that the ipaddr
module that is used for IP filtering can't handle.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4007#section-11 specifies how IPv6 addresses can
have zone identifiers like trailing '%13' or '%eth0'. The zone identifier is
used to help distinguish *if* the same address should be available on multiple
interfaces. It *could* potentially have security implications in the odd case
where the same address is different on different interfaces. The IP whitelist
functionality does however not support zone filters, so there is no way users
can expect the zone to be relevant for IP filtering. We can thus safely strip
the zone index and only check for match on the other parts of the address.

==================
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.
