Subject: Public Inbox Output Broken Due to Double HTML Encoding

Hi,
We have noticed a recent issue with the lore public inbox output where
it appears to be affected by double HTML encoding. This problem
surfaced after 1 September 2024, as that was the last time we observed
the correct output.
The issue is particularly visible in email headers, where characters
such as <, >, and quotes are incorrectly encoded twice. This results in
unreadable and improperly rendered email headers. It also breaks
several links in the HTML output.
For instance, in this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20240905141211.1253307-1-kraxel@redhat.com/
Here's the current, broken output:
```
From: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>
To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org
Cc: "Paolo Bonzini" <pbonzini@redhat.com>,
"Yanan Wang" <wangyanan55@huawei.com>,
"Zhao Liu" <zhao1.liu@intel.com>,
"Eduardo Habkost" <eduardo@habkost.net>,
"Richard Henderson" <richard.henderson@linaro.org>,
"Marcel Apfelbaum" <marcel.apfelbaum@gmail.com>,
"Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <philmd@linaro.org>,
"Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>,
```
And here's the expected output:
```
From: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>
To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org
Cc: "Paolo Bonzini" <pbonzini@redhat.com>,
"Yanan Wang" <wangyanan55@huawei.com>,
"Zhao Liu" <zhao1.liu@intel.com>,
"Eduardo Habkost" <eduardo@habkost.net>,
"Richard Henderson" <richard.henderson@linaro.org>,
"Marcel Apfelbaum" <marcel.apfelbaum@gmail.com>,
"Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <philmd@linaro.org>,
"Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>,
"Gerd Hoffmann" <kraxel@redhat.com>
```
It seems like the encoding process is being applied redundantly, causing
special characters like < (for <) and > (for >) to render
improperly. This double encoding affects both usability and
readability, especially when dealing with email threads that rely
heavily on clear headers for communication between contributors.
For reference, I have also attached a screenshot of the output, which
can be found here:
https://gist.github.com/ammarfaizi2/bbb1480822ece70cf2d261e876bd7ba2
It would be great if this could be resolved as soon as possible to
restore the proper display of inbox outputs.
Thank you for your attention to this matter!
