#1486713: Add a tolerant mode to HTMLParser.

2010-12-03T04:06:39+00:00

The motivation for adding this option is that the the functionality it
provides used to be provided by sgmllib in Python2, and was used by,
for example, BeautifulSoup.  Without this option, the Python3 version
of BeautifulSoup and the many programs that use it are crippled.

The original patch was by 'kxroberto'.  I modified it heavily but kept his
heuristics and test.  I also added additional heuristics to fix #975556,
#1046092, and part of #6191.  This patch should be completely backward
compatible:  the behavior with the default strict=True is unchanged.

#2830: add html.escape() helper and move cgi.escape() uses in the standard library to it. It defaults to quote=True and also escapes single quotes, which makes casual use safer. The cgi.escape() interface is not touched, but emits a (silent) PendingDeprecationWarning.
