1. `sanitize_html(user_input: str) -> str`
Escapes HTML special characters to prevent XSS.

Must handle None input (return empty string).
2. `sanitize_filename(filename: str) -> str`
Makes a filename safe to use on the filesystem.
Must: strip path separators (/ \\ ..), allow only alphanumeric, dots, dashes, underscores.
Must reject empty filenames (return 'unnamed').
Must truncate to 255 characters.
Do NOT use eval(), exec(), or os.system(). Do NOT trust any input.""",
