Export to HTML fails + fix

[Steve]

Tested on Xubuntu 20.04 with Idle version 3.8.5
On clicking "Export to HTML" and selecting a file name, an empty HTML file is created.
This is due to:
AttributeError: module 'cgi' has no attribute 'escape'

To fix the problem, change line 88:
import cgi
to
import html

and line 145 from
out.append(cgi.escape(content))
to
out.append(html.escape(content))
