Bug 1520011: Notifications displaying incorrectly

If we have special chars like " or > in a feedback message they get
saved to db as htmlspecialchars like &quot; or $gt;

When we go to display them we turn the & part into a specialchar again
leading to bad display.

Bug description:
  1. I was testing bug #1516412 to trigger the copy and paste message
  2. I copied the text in the bug report and posted it in one of my pages  called that page
  3. The text looked fine on the dashboard
  3. I saw a notification so I proceeded to check
  4 I realised it was the the text that I copied from the bug report but the quotes around the text and had disappeared and displaying this instead: &quot;Note&quot;.

  Please see then attached screen shot.
