templates/summary: escape branch/tag/bookmark names in 'Download as zip' links to prevent XSS
On a repository summary page, in the 'Download' section where you can
download an archive of the repository at a given revision, the branch/tag
names were not correctly escaped.
This means that if an attacker is able to push a branch/tag/bookmark
containing HTML/JavaScript in its name, then that code would be evaluated.
This is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
Fix the problem by correctly escaping the branch/tag/bookmarks.

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