login: fix incorrect CSRF rejection of "Reset Your Password" form (Issue #350)

htmlfill would remove the CSRF token from the form when substituting the query
parameters, causing password reset to break.

By default, htmlfill will clear all input fields that doesn't have a new
"default" value provided. It could be fixed by setting force_defaults to False
- see http://www.formencode.org/en/1.2-branch/modules/htmlfill.html . It could
also be fixed by providing the CSRF token in the defaults to be substituted in
the form.

Instead, refactor password_reset_confirmation to have more explicitly safe
handling of query parameters. Replace htmlfill with the usual template
variables.

The URLs are generated in kallithea/model/user.py send_reset_password_email()
and should only contain email, timestamp (integer as digit string) and a hex
token from get_reset_password_token() .

.. _statistics:

=====================
Repository statistics
=====================

Kallithea has a *repository statistics* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, the amount of commits per committer is visualized in a timeline. This
feature can be enabled using the ``Enable statistics`` checkbox on the
repository ``Settings`` page.

The statistics system makes heavy demands on the server resources, so
in order to keep a balance between usability and performance, statistics are
cached inside the database and gathered incrementally.

When Celery is disabled:

  On each first visit to the summary page a set of 250 commits are parsed and
  added to the statistics cache. This incremental gathering also happens on each
  visit to the statistics page, until all commits are fetched.

  Statistics are kept cached until additional commits are added to the
  repository. In such a case Kallithea will only fetch the new commits when
  updating its statistics cache.

When Celery is enabled:

  On the first visit to the summary page, Kallithea will create tasks that will
  execute on Celery workers. These tasks will gather all of the statistics until
  all commits are parsed. Each task parses 250 commits, then launches a new
  task.
