Subject: [PATCH] [SECURITY] Escape '<' and ']]>' in inline <style> blocks

This is to prevent people from closing the <style> tag, and
then doing arbitrary js-y things. In particular, this is needed
for when previewing user css pages.

This does not escape '>' since its used as the child selector
in css, and generally speaking, '>' is safe inside the contents
of elements.
