libutil: fix double-encoding of URLs
If you have a URL that needs to be percent-encoded, such as `http://localhost:8181/test/+3d.tar.gz`, and try to lock that in a Nix flake such as the following: { inputs.test = { url = "http://localhost:8181/test/+3d.tar.gz"; flake = false; }; outputs = { test, ... }: { t = builtins.readFile test; }; } running `nix flake metadata` shows that the input URL has been incorrectly double-encoded (despite the flake.lock being correctly encoded only once): [...snip...] Inputs: └───test: http://localhost:8181/test/%252B3d.tar.gz?narHash=sha256-EFUdrtf6Rn0LWIJufrmg8q99aT3jGfLvd1//zaJEufY%3D (Notice the `%252B`? That's just `%2B` but percent-encoded again) With this patch, the double-encoding is gone; running `nix flake metadata` will show the proper URL: [...snip...] Inputs: └───test: http://localhost:8181/test/%2B3d.tar.gz?narHash=sha256-EFUdrtf6Rn0LWIJufrmg8q99aT3jGfLvd1//zaJEufY%3D --- As far as I can tell, this happens because Nix already percent-encodes the URL and stores this as the value of `inputs.asdf.url`. However, when Nix later tries to read this out of the eval state as a string (via `getStrAttr`), it has to run it through `parseURL` again to get the `ParsedURL` structure. Now, this itself isn't a problem -- the true problem arises when using `ParsedURL::to_string` later, which then _re-escapes the path_. It is at this point that what would have been `%2B` (`+`) becomes `%252B` (`%2B`).
