HTML escape

Escape special characters for safe HTML text.

Escape the five characters &, <, >, double quotes and apostrophes into their HTML entity forms. The result can represent the original characters as text in HTML without interpreting angle brackets as tags. Existing ampersands are escaped too, including those in existing entities.
