NodeBB 4.14 turned on real HTML escaping for single-brace template interpolations (4.13 used an identity escape). This ports raw-HTML output to the double-brace forms ({{helper(...)}}, {{txEscape(content)}}, {{tx(name)}}), mirroring the harmony 2.2.72 -> 3.0.15 and core 4.13.2 -> 4.14.0 template diffs. Fixes the escaped-markup breakage on westgate.pw after the 2026.07.11-1 deploy.
Verified on a fresh 4.14.0 dev stack: no escaped tags on /, /categories, /category/2, /topic/1, /search; contract tests pass.
