Query parameter gets overly escaped when saved to the refcache #239
Description
To Reproduce
You can use the attached minimal htmltest-query-escape-test.zip, which contains only the two following files listed next.
index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Example Link</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="https://grpc.io?param1=a+b¶m2=Hello,+World">
Example.com greeting
</a>
</body>.htmltest.yml:
StripQueryString: falseTo reproduce, run:
$ htmltest -c .htmltest.yml --log-level 1 ./index.html

index.html
hitting --- index.html --> https://grpc.io?param1=a+b¶m2=Hello,+World
✔✔✔ passed in 356.54455msExpected behaviour
The refcache.json should contain the exact same URL as the HTML file, namely:
{
"https://grpc.io?param1=a+b¶m2=Hello,+World": {
"StatusCode": 206,
"LastSeen": "2025-02-06T11:53:37.190045-05:00"
}
}Actual behaviour
The recache contains:
{
"https://grpc.io?param1=a+b\u0026param2=Hello,+World": {
"StatusCode": 206,
"LastSeen": "2025-02-06T11:53:37.190045-05:00"
}
}Note the & has been escaped and encoded as \u0026. I've also seen + get escaped to +, but I can't reproduce this in my minimal example yet.
