Harden JS by disabling jQuery eval

Disable execution of eval in jQuery. We do require an allowed eval CSP
configuration at the moment for handlebars et al. But for jQuery there is
not much of a reason to execute JavaScript directly via eval.

This thus mitigates some unexpected XSS vectors. As example try to insert
`$('.fileinfo').html('<a href="asd"><script>alert(1)</script></a>');`
with and without this patch in your browsers JS console when the file list
is opened.
