Replace internal links to files in blocks with a download url if the user has no edit permissions [csenger] (#930)
In block text indexing, query for IBlockSearchableText named adapters to allow extraction from any block type. This avoids hardcoding for the 'text' block type. [tiberiuichim] (#917)
Added IBlockFieldDeserializationTransformer and its counterpart, IBlockFieldSerializationTransformer concepts, use subscribers to convert/adjust value of blocks on serialization/deserialization, this enables an extensible mechanism to transform block values when saving content.
Added an html block deserializer transformer, it will clean the content of the "html" block according to portal_transform x-html-safe settings.
Added an image block deserializer transformer, it will use resolveuid mechanism to transform the url field to a UID of content.
Move the resolveuid code from the dexterity field deserializer to a dedicated block converter adapter, using the above mechanism. [tiberiuichim] (#915)
