ERB::Util.html_escape should call #to_s on argument

[chuyeow]

The erb monkey patch should convert its argument to a string so that it doesn't unexpectedly try to escape, for example, a Fixnum. An example of this in practice would be a Rails form generated using form helpers like so, with id being a Fixnum:

<% form_for ... %>
  <%= f.hidden_field :id %>
<% end %>

A simple change would fix this:

class ERB
  module Util
    def html_escape(s)
      EscapeUtils.escape_html(s.to_s)
    end
  end
end

Thanks!
