Don’t allow arbitrary data in back urls
`link_to :back` creates a link to whatever was
passed in via the referer header. If an attacker
can alter the referer header, that would create
a cross-site scripting vulnerability on every
page that uses `link_to :back`
This commit restricts the back URL to valid
non-javascript URLs.
