/**
* Returns an {@link Escaper} instance that escapes strings so they can be
* safely included in URL form parameter names
* and values. Escaping is performed with the UTF-8 character encoding.
* The caller is responsible for replacing any
* unpaired carriage return or line feed characters with a CR+LF pair on
* any non-file inputs before escaping them with this escaper.
*
*
When escaping a String, the following rules apply:
*
* - The alphanumeric characters "a" through "z", "A" through "Z" and "0"
* through "9" remain the same.
*
- The special characters ".", "-", "*", and "_" remain the same.
*
- The space character " " is converted into a plus sign "+".
*
- All other characters are converted into one or more bytes using UTF-8
* encoding and each byte is then represented by the 3-character string
* "%XY", where "XY" is the two-digit, uppercase, hexadecimal
* representation of the byte value.
*
*
* This escaper is suitable for escaping parameter names and values even
* when using the non-standard semicolon,
* rather than the ampersand, as a parameter delimiter. Nevertheless, we
* recommend using the ampersand unless you must interoperate with systems
* that require semicolons.
*
*
Note: Unlike other escapers, URL escapers produce uppercase
* hexadecimal sequences. From
* RFC 3986:
* "URI producers and normalizers should use uppercase hexadecimal digits
* for all percent-encodings."

/**
* Returns an {@link Escaper} instance that escapes strings so they can be

* returned escaper escapes all non-ASCII characters, even though many of these are accepted in modern URLs.
* (If the escaper were to leave these
* characters unescaped, they would be escaped by the consumer at parse time,
* anyway.) Additionally, the escaper escapes the slash character ("/").
* While slashes are acceptable in URL paths, they are considered by the
* specification to be separators between "path segments." This implies that,
* if you wish for your path to contain slashes, you must escape each segment
* separately and then join them.

- The space character " " is converted into %20.
