report-error.bbclass: replace angle brackets with &lt; and &gt;
when we have below content in local.conf or auto.conf: BUILDHISTORY_COMMIT_AUTHOR ?= "Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com>" send-error-report will fail with "HTTP Error 500: OK" error-report-web do rudimentary check on all fields that are passed to the graphs page to avoid any XSS happening, if contains '<', the server will return error(Invalid characters in json). fixed by use escape of <> to replace it. NOTE: with this change, error-report-web need to add filter 'safe' for the string wanted to display to avoid further HTML escaping prior to output. Below is how the content displayed on webpage: with the filter 'safe': BUILDHISTORY_COMMIT_AUTHOR ?= "Khem Raj <raj.khem@gmail.com>" without the filter 'safe': BUILDHISTORY_COMMIT_AUTHOR ?= "Khem Raj &lt;raj.khem@gmail.com&gt;" Another patch for error-report-web will send to yocto mail list.
