exp/template/html: moved error docs out of package docs onto error codes

This replaces the errStr & errLine members of context with a single err
*Error, and introduces a number of const error codes, one per
escape-time failure mode, that can be separately documented.

The changes to the error documentation moved from doc.go to error.go
are cosmetic.

Errors
This section describes the errors returned by EscapeSet. Each error is
illustrated by an example that triggers the error, followed by an explanation
of the problem.
See the documentation of ErrorCode for details.
Error: "... appears in an ambiguous URL context"
Example:
<a href="
{{if .C}}
/path/
{{else}}
/search?q=
{{end}}
{{.X}}
">
Discussion:
{{.X}} is in an ambiguous URL context since, depending on {{.C}}, it may be
either a URL suffix or a query parameter.
Moving {{.X}} into the condition removes the ambiguity:
<a href="{{if .C}}/path/{{.X}}{{else}}/search?q={{.X}}">
Error: "... appears inside a comment"
Example:
*/
// <!-- {{.X}} -->
// <script>/* {{.X}} */</script>
// <style>/* {{.X}} */</style>
/*
Discussion:
{{.X}} appears inside a comment. There is no escaping convention for
comments. To use IE conditional comments, inject the
whole comment as a type string (see below).
To comment out code, break the {{...}}.
Error: "{{if}} branches end in different contexts"
Example:
{{if .C}}<a href="{{end}}{{.X}}
Discussion:
EscapeSet statically examines each possible path when it encounters a {{if}},
{{range}}, or {{with}} to escape any following pipelines. The example is
ambiguous since {{.X}} might be an HTML text node, or a URL prefix in an
HTML attribute. EscapeSet needs to understand the context of {{.X}} to escape
it, but that depends on the run-time value of {{.C}}.
The problem is usually something like missing quotes or angle brackets, or
can be avoided by refactoring to put the two contexts into different
branches of an if, range or with. Adding an {{else}} might help.
First, look for a bug in your template. Missing quotes or '>' can trigger
this error.
{{if .C}}<div ... class="foo>{{end}} <- No quote after foo
Second, try refactoring your template.
{{if .C}}<script>alert({{end}}{{.X}}{{if .C}})</script>{{end}}
->
{{if .C}}<script>alert({{.X}})</script>{{else}}{{.X}}{{end}}
Third, check for {{range}}s that have no {{else}}
<a href="/search
{{range $i, $v := .}}
{{if $i}}&{{else}}?{{end}}
v={{$v}}
{{end}}
&x={{.X}}
">
looks good, but if {{.}} is empty then the URL is /search&x=...
where {{.X}} is not guaranteed to be in a URL query.
EscapeSet cannot prove which {{range}} collections are never non-empty, so
add an {{else}}
<a href="{{range ...}}...{{end}}&x={{X}}">
->
<a href="{{range ...}}...{{else}}?{{end}}&x={{.X}}">
Fourth, contact the mailing list. You may have a useful pattern that
EscapeSet does not yet support, and we can work with you.
Error: "... ends in a non-text context: ..."
Examples:
<div
<div title="no close quote>
<script>f()
Discussion:
EscapeSet assumes the ouput is a DocumentFragment of HTML.
Templates that end without closing tags will trigger this warning.
Templates that produce incomplete Fragments should not be named
in the call to EscapeSet.
If you have a helper template in your set that is not meant to produce a
document fragment, then do not pass its name to EscapeSet(set, ...names).
{{define "main"}} <script>{{template "helper"}}</script> {{end}}
{{define "helper"}} document.write(' <div title=" ') {{end}}
"helper" does not produce a valid document fragment, though it does
produce a valid JavaScript Program.
"must specify names of top level templates"
EscapeSet does not assume that all templates in a set produce HTML.
Some may be helpers that produce snippets of other languages.
Passing in no template names is most likely an error, so EscapeSet(set) will
panic.
If you call EscapeSet with a slice of names, guard it with a len check:
if len(names) != 0 {
set, err := EscapeSet(set, ...names)
}
Error: "no such template ..."
Examples:
{{define "main"}}<div {{template "attrs"}}>{{end}}
{{define "attrs"}}href="{{.URL}}"{{end}}
Discussion:
EscapeSet looks through template calls to compute the context.
Here the {{.URL}} in "attrs" must be treated as a URL when called from "main",
but if "attrs" is not in set when EscapeSet(&set, "main") is called, this
error will arise.
Error: "on range loop re-entry: ..."
Example:
{{range .}}<p class={{.}}{{end}}
Discussion:
If an iteration through a range would cause it to end in
a different context than an earlier pass, there is no single context.
In the example, the <p> tag is missing a '>'.
EscapeSet cannot tell whether {{.}} is meant to be an HTML class or the
content of a broken <p> element and complains because the second iteration
would produce something like
<p class=foo<p class=bar
Error: "unfinished escape sequence in ..."
Example:
<script>alert("\{{.X}}")</script>
Discussion:
EscapeSet does not support actions following a backslash.
This is usually an error and there are better solutions; for
our example
<script>alert("{{.X}}")</script>
should work, and if {{.X}} is a partial escape sequence such as
"xA0", give it the type ContentTypeJSStr and include the whole
sequence, as in
{`\xA0`, ContentTypeJSStr}
Error: "unfinished JS regexp charset in ..."
Example:
<script>var pattern = /foo[{{.Chars}}]/</script>
Discussion:
EscapeSet does not support interpolation into regular expression literal
character sets.
Error: "ZgotmplZ"
Example:
<img src="{{.X}}">
where {{.X}} evaluates to `javascript:...`
Discussion:
"ZgotmplZ" is a special value that indicates that unsafe content reached
a CSS or URL context at runtime. The output of the example will be
<img src="#ZgotmplZ">
If the data can be trusted, giving the string type XXX will exempt
it from filtering.
