[Fix] Mitigate XSS attack vector by cleaning input before it hits our Database (#171)

## Changes

- All text input fields are now cleaned with nh3 to remove html tags. We allow certain html tags under `settings.py/ALLOWED_HTML_TAGS` so we can easily update the tags we allow in the future.
- All names and descriptions now use the template tag `nh_safe` in all html files.
- Usernames and emails are a small exception and are not allowed any html tags
