Fix invalid Atom feeds when using emoji, horizontal rules, or images.

Fixes issues #880, #723, #1113: Markdown must be rendered to XHTML, not HTML, when generating summary content for Atom feeds. Otherwise, content-less tags like <img> and <hr>, generated when issue descriptions, merge request descriptions, comments, or commit messages use emoji, horizontal rules, or images, are not terminated and make the Atom XML invalid.
