Description

Given I have a model with FileField, admin interface and browser with JavaScript enabled.
When I upload a file with name "something<div onclick="alert('oops')">.jpg"
then I see model change form with link like to "something.jpg".
And when I click to the "jpg" then I see "oops" alert.

There is a bug in the ClearableFileInput render method. It doesn't encodes FileField properties (name and url) when writes HTML.
It could be dangerous for sites where users can to upload files and administrators manages them with admin interface.
