sw HTML export: fix missing escaping for image links

Hyperlink URLs on images are currently written to the HTML output as-is,
without any any encoding.

Image links are written using HtmlWriter from svtools, which has the
advantage of not building the markup manually (similar to
sax_fastparser::FastSerializerHelper for XML), but that doesn't do any
escaping. Some other parts of the HTML export build the export markup
manually, but use HTMLOutFuncs::Out_String() to encode problematic
content.

Fix the problem by using HTMLOutFuncs::Out_String() in HtmlWriter for
attribute values: it seems reasonable to assume that users of HtmlWriter
would pass in unencoded strings, similar to how the sax serializer
works.

This could lead to double-encoding in case some user of
HtmlWriter::attribute() would encode its attribute value already, but
inspecting existing calls, none of the clients seem to do that at the
moment.
