 This patch adds html entities decoding function to utils.html

 == Description ==

 Replaces HTML entities (name, decimal and hexadecimal) with unicode
 equivalents.[[BR]]

 Ampersands, quotes and carets are not replaced by default.

 == Usage ==

 '''decode_entities''' can be used to normalize and store user input from a
 js html editor for example.[[BR]]
 If you need to cut a string that could contain HTML entities, you can
 decode it before the cut without the fear of cutting through an entity.


 == Examples ==
 {{{
 #!python
 >>> from django.utils.html import decode_entities
 >>> html = u'&lt;D&eacute;j&agrave; &#9001;&gt;'
 >>> decode_entities(html)
 u'&lt;D\xe9j\xe0 \u2329&gt;'
 >>> decode_entities(html, decode_all=True)
 u'<D\xe9j\xe0 \u2329>'
 }}}
