Thawab fails to start: cannot import name 'escape' from 'cgi'

[Jeremy Bícha]

Impact
------
The Thawab app doesn't start.

ImportError: cannot import name 'escape' from 'cgi' (/usr/lib/python3.10/cgi.py)

Python 3.8 dropped the 'escape' function from cgi; we need to import it from 'html' instead.

After that issue is fixed, there is another issue:
$ thawab-gtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/thawab-gtk", line 5, in <module>
    from Thawab.gtkUi import main
  File "/usr/share/thawab/Thawab/gtkUi.py", line 35, in <module>
    from Thawab.shamelaUtils import ShamelaSqlite, shamelaImport
  File "/usr/share/thawab/Thawab/shamelaUtils.py", line 51, in <module>
    os.urandom(hashlen*3/4).encode('base64')[:hashlen]
TypeError: 'float' object cannot be interpreted as an integer

Test Case
---------
Install Thawab.

The app should run. (The command-line name is thawab-gtk)

What Could Go Wrong
-------------------
The app doesn't start currently, so it can't really get any worse.

Other Info
----------
Thawab has a dependency, okasha, that also needs the html escape import fix. This is fixed in okasha 0.3.0.

Ubuntu 22.10 (Kinetic Kudu) has reached end of life, so this bug will not be fixed for that specific release.
