issues: support generic regex replacements in issue_url and issue_prefix

Issue reference linking is pretty limited:
- the issue_url is a literal with only three special tokens {id},
{repo} and {repo_name}. There is no way to let the URL be dependent on
other elements of the input issue reference.
- The value for {id} is somewhat oddly determined by the concatenation of
all parenthesized groups in the issue_pat regular expression
- the link text of the resulting link is limited to the contents of the
literal issue_prefix with the determined {id}. It is not possible to
retain the input issue reference verbatim, nor to let the link text be
dependent on other elements of the input issue reference.

This commit makes the issue reference linking more flexible:

- issue_prefix is replaced by the more generic issue_sub(stitution), which
is a string that may contain backreferences to regex groups specified in
issue_pat. This string, with backreferences resolved, is used as the
link text of urlified issue references.
- if issue_sub is empty, the entire text matched by issue_pat is used as
the link text.
- like issue_sub, also issue_url can contain backreferences to regex groups.
- {id} is no longer treated as a special token, as it can be solved by
generic backreferences ('\g<id>' assuming issue pattern contains something
like '(P<id>\d+)'. {repo} and {repo_name} are still supported, because
their value is provided externally and not normally part of the
issue pattern.

Documentation and ini file template is updated as well.

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