Subject: [PATCH] [release-branch.go1.19] html/template: emit filterFailsafe
 for empty unquoted attr value

An unquoted action used as an attribute value can result in unsafe
behavior if it is empty, as HTML normalization will result in unexpected
attributes, and may allow attribute injection. If executing a template
results in a empty unquoted attribute value, emit filterFailsafe
instead.

Thanks to Juho Nurminen of Mattermost for reporting this issue.

For #59722
Fixes #59815
Fixes CVE-2023-29400
