fix(mr_create/issue_create): add encoding to title and change description encoding

Kerri Miller requested to merge github/fork/kartikay101/url-encoding-mr-and-issue-create into trunk

Created by: kartikay101

  • Prevent browsers from converting a space containing query to a search query
  • Allow users to add symbols to their title and description
    • QueryEscape does not escape '+' which is converted to a space by the browser

Description

Used path encoding to convert spaces to %20 which prevents Titles and Descriptions with spaces from getting converted to search queries Did not use Query Encoding as it prevents the usage of + which won't be encoded and thus converted to a space
