Significant Changes

• Raw HTML code in DAG docs and DAG params descriptions is disabled by default

  To ensure that no malicious javascript can be injected with DAG descriptions or trigger UI forms by DAG authors
  a new parameter webserver.allow_raw_html_descriptions was added with default value of False.
  If you trust your DAG authors code and want to allow using raw HTML in DAG descriptions and params, you can restore the previous
  behavior by setting the configuration value to True.

  To ensure Airflow is secure by default, the raw HTML support in trigger UI has been super-seeded by markdown support via
  the description_md attribute. If you have been using description_html please migrate to description_md.
  The custom_html_form is now deprecated. (#35460)
