Escape HTML outputted by 'render-data' to prevent XSS attacks

Description

We should sanitize form input to prevent cross-site scripting and SQL injection. Sanitation should ideally be done in a centralized place (in particular, request-object-mapping).

Summary: Sanitize input to prevent cross-site scripting and SQL injection → Escape HTML outputted by 'render-data' to prevent XSS attacks

The goals of this ticket are too broad and ill defined. SQL injection is an unrelated issue and input sanitation depends on the type of data. For now we should change the goal to escaping HTML outputted by 'render-data' since all widgets [should] use it for rendering.

Fixed. 'render-data' now escapes all output.
