gitweb: Strip non-printable characters from syntax highlighter output
The current code, as is, passes control characters, such as form-feed (^L) to highlight which then passes it through to the browser. User agents (web browsers) that support 'application/xhtml+xml' usually require that web pages declared as XHTML and with this mimetype are well-formed XML. Unescaped control characters cannot appear within a contents of a valid XML document. This will cause the browser to display one of the following warnings: * Safari v5.1 (6534.50) & Google Chrome v13.0.782.112: This page contains the following errors: error on line 657 at column 38: PCDATA invalid Char value 12 Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error. * Mozilla Firefox 3.6.19 & Mozilla Firefox 5.0: XML Parsing Error: not well-formed Location: http://path/to/git/repo/blah/blah Both errors were generated by gitweb.perl v1.7.3.4 w/ highlight 2.7 using arch/ia64/kernel/unwind.c from the Linux kernel. When syntax highlighter is not used, control characters are replaced by esc_html(), but with syntax highlighter they were passed through to browser (to_utf8() doesn't remove control characters). Introduce sanitize() subroutine which strips forbidden characters, but does not perform HTML escaping, and use it in git_blob() to sanitize syntax highlighter output for XHTML. Note that excluding "\t" (U+0009), "\n" (U+000A) and "\r" (U+000D) is not strictly necessary, atleast for currently the only callsite: "\t" tabs are replaced by spaces by untabify(), "\n" is stripped from each line before processing it, and replacing "\r" could be considered improvement.
