[GITEA] Use restricted sanitizer for repository description

- Currently the repository description uses the same sanitizer as a
normal markdown document. This means that element such as heading and
images are allowed and can be abused.
- Create a minimal restricted sanitizer for the repository description,
which only allows what the postprocessor currently allows, which are
links and emojis.
- Added unit testing.
