setup: avoid bleach 3.1.4 for now - it seems to deliberately cause regressions

See https://github.com/mozilla/bleach/blob/master/CHANGES and
https://github.com/mozilla/bleach/commit/d6018f2539d271963c3e7f54f36ef11900363c69
... which adds xfails for use cases similar to how we use bleach.

It would completely remove style attributes instead of dropping bad parts of
them, as shown by the markup_renderer.py doctest it made fail:

>>> MarkupRenderer.render('''<img id="a" style="margin-top:-1000px;color:red" src="http://example.com/test.jpg">''&apos;, '.md')
Expected:
'<p><img id="a" src="http://example.com/test.jpg"; style="color: red;"></p>'
Got:
'<p><img id="a" src="http://example.com/test.jpg"; style=""></p>'

Until a better solution is found, stick to 3.1.3 and accept the potential
ReDoS.

Debugging Kallithea
===================

If you encounter problems with Kallithea, here are some instructions
on how to debug them.

.. note:: First make sure you're using the latest version available.


Enable detailed debug
---------------------

Kallithea uses the standard Python ``logging`` module to log its output.
By default only loggers with ``INFO`` level are displayed. To enable full output
change ``level = DEBUG`` for all logging handlers in the currently used .ini file.
This change will allow you to see much more detailed output in the log file or
console. This generally helps a lot to track issues.


Enable interactive debug mode
-----------------------------

To enable interactive debug mode simply comment out ``set debug = false`` in
the .ini file. This will trigger an interactive debugger each time
there is an error in the browser, or send a http link if an error occurred in the backend. This
is a great tool for fast debugging as you get a handy Python console right
in the web view.

.. warning:: NEVER ENABLE THIS ON PRODUCTION! The interactive console
             can be a serious security threat to your system.
