molt-framework 1.1.1

//! HTML and XML escaping.
//!
//! There are three distinct HTML/XML escapers and the golden fixtures depend on the differences
//! between them. (The original spec, `docs/history/MOLT_SPEC.md` §3.3, shows only one;
//! following it would change the output.)
//!
//! | function | escapes | notes |
//! | --- | --- | --- |
//! | [`escape_text`] | `&` `<` `>` `"` `'` | `&` first; `'` becomes `&#x27;` |
//! | [`escape_attribute`] | `&` `"` `'` | **not** `<` or `>` |
//! | [`escape_xml`] | `&` `<` `>` `"` `'` | `'` becomes `&apos;`, the XML spelling; XML-illegal characters dropped |
//! | [`escape_json_script`] | `<` `>` `&` U+2028 U+2029 | JSON `\uXXXX` escapes, for JSON inside `<script>`; not HTML escaping |
//!
//! Escaping is applied **once, when content enters the tree** — never at render time.
//! That is why [`crate::core::Node::Raw`] exists as the documented escape hatch.
