Revert "Merge branch 'khanchi-designs-patch2' into 'master'"

Luke Duncalfe requested to merge revert-b3e21ec0 into master

What does this MR do?

This MR reverts !44136 (merged).

Spaces in a filename are considered an "invalid" character and are replaced with underscores, so the fix in !44136 (merged) prevents filenames with spaces from being uploaded. Design filenames with spaces are reasonably common, including files from MacOS screen captures.

The MR was attempting to address a specific edge case that could lead to an error when uploading designs with characters that are replaced by underscores #219113 (comment 360806168). However, the effect of the fix is to prevent people from uploading common design file names, so we should revert and reconsider how to best address the edge case.
