lib: establish py3 compatible strategy for string handling: introducing safe_bytes and deprecating safe_str

The meaning of safe_str will change when moving to py3. All use of safe_str is
thus tech debt that we have to chop off, mostly by moving to either
safe_unicode or safe_bytes ... or dropping because we know what we are doing
and rely on the improved type safety in py3.

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
