lib: handle both HTML, unsafe strings, and exceptions passed to helpers.flash()

Before, h.flash would trust any input to contain html ... and callers would
convert exceptions to string, often with a simple str() or unicode() ... which
really didn't deserve to be trusted.

Instead, only trust messages that have a __html__ and escape anything else ...
but also apply str/unicode on the parameter so the caller doesn't have to but
*can* pass an exception directly.

.. _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.
