Summary0010313: Site description repeatedly escapes special characters
DescriptionI'm running my own instance of CDash 1.6.2 and it appears that special characters such as '\' and ''' are escaped in the site description when I edit it, and every time I edit it, the escapes are then quoted so the description gets more and more messed up with escapes.

For example, setting the site description (on the Edit Site page) to "Bryan's workstation" will escape the single-quote when I click "Update Site" so it reads "Bryan\'s workstation". Subsequent clicks on "Update Site" will further escape the backslash: "Bryan\\\'s workstation", "Bryan\\\\\\\'s workstation", etc.
