html/template: properly escape URLs in meta content attributes
The meta tag can include a content attribute that contains URLs, which we currently don't escape if they are inserted via a template action. This can plausibly lead to XSS vulnerabilities if untrusted data is inserted there, the http-equiv attribute is set to "refresh", and the content attribute contains an action like `url={{.}}`. Track whether we are inside of a meta element, if we are inside of a content attribute, _and_ if the content attribute contains "url=". If all of those are true, then we will apply the same URL escaping that we use elsewhere. Also add a new GODEBUG, htmlmetacontenturlescape, to allow disabling this escaping for cases where this behavior is considered safe. The behavior can be disabled by setting htmlmetacontenturlescape=0.
