Description

If an authenticated user calls hg init hg.host.com/dummy/../../../etc
it will create the repository in another root directory if the process of
hgkeeper has permissions for this.
This could be an attack to the server.

Also hgkeeper admin repository can be overriden like this.
hg init ssh://hg.host.com/dummy/../hgkeeper/keys

In /r/2421/diff/1/#index_header I check if the repository is known.
That should be checked here, too. It will always be a problem if someone creates a new repository in a sub-directory of another repository.

Testing Done:: +
Container tested only... maybe "once/command.go" need to be adjusted, too.

not really a fan of a security related function being duplicated. I know this is because there's no good place to put it right now. Maybe a normalize package?

Yeah, I didn't like it, too. I moved it to new repositories.go as a normal func instead of another lambda call. So it uses the normal "canInit/canRead/canRemove" for permission which will fail for empty/invalid path.
