Permit XML entities to be escaped in template output.

Useful for creating XML documents directly from Hg logging. Can also be used for
HTML. For use in content, will escape '&', '<', and for completeness '>'
(although it is not strictly necessary). For use in attributes, will also escape
' and ". Will also replace nonprinting (ASCII) control characters with spaces,
since these are illegal in XML.
