fix(pipeline): allow pipeline parameters to use colons in the values

Kerri Miller requested to merge github/fork/TokyoQ/fix/colon_pipeline_parameters into trunk

Created by: TokyoQ

Fixes #829

Description Currently if you try to pass in a pipeline variable which includes colons, the input is not passed through correctly. Anything beyond the first colon is thrown away.

This fix will only split the input at the first colon (:) and keep the rest of the value intact.

How Has This Been Tested? The following example is representative of one I have had to use at my company. I have compiled the code with this fix in and have used it successfully in a private Gitlab instance.

glab ci run --variables GROUP_NAME:test-group,DAY_OF_WEEK:Wednesday,START_TIME:05:50pm

GitLab version is 13.12.8 Enterprise Edition
