CVE-2018-9987: Fix XSS issue with muting notifications.

Browse Source 
This fixes an XSS issue with Zulip's muting UI, where if a stream or
topic name contained malicious HTML containing JavaScript, and the
user did a muting interaction, the malicious JavaScript could run when
rendering the "you just muted a topic" notification.

We did an audit for similarly problematic use of `.html`, and found
none; for the next release we'll be merging a series of changes to our
linter to prevent future instances of this being added.

Thanks to Suhas Sunil Gaikwad for reporting this issue.
