Inspired by https://github.com/salesforce/secure-filters and Django's
escapejsfilter, this PR adds anescapejsfilter for escaping characters for use in JavaScript string literals.Whereas the standard
escapefilter replaces&,<,>,'and"with their equivalent HTML escape sequences,escapejsreplaces control characters and potentially dangerous symbols with their corresponding Unicode escape sequences.Note that
escapejsis enabled by default. Like thesafefilter, it does not need to be added to your Liquid environment. You can deleteescapejsand/orsafefrom your Liquid environment if desired.
