startkey and endkey don't work with ~ or %7E
--------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-324
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-324
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: svn -r763553
            Reporter: Brian Candler


The following range queries don't work as expected

  startkey="a"&endkey="a~"
  startkey="a"&endkey="a%7E"

(Aside: I was hoping to use "foo" to "foo~" as a reasonably clean way of 
querying "any key beginning with foo")

The following testcase shows this for "a~", since query doesn't encode it. 
However I wasn't sure how to test for "a%7E" cleanly.

+  T(rows.length == 1 && rows[0].key == "b");
 };

Here are the actual results obtained using curl:

$ curl -X POST -d '{"map":"function(doc) { emit(doc.foo, null); }"}' 
'http://127.0.0.1:5984/test_suite_db/_temp_view?startkey="a"&endkey="a~";'
{"total_rows":26,"offset":7,"rows":[
{"id":"7","key":"a","value":null},
{"id":"8","key":"A","value":null}
]}
$ curl -X POST -d '{"map":"function(doc) { emit(doc.foo, null); }"}' 
'http://127.0.0.1:5984/test_suite_db/_temp_view?startkey="a"&endkey="a%7E";'
{"total_rows":26,"offset":7,"rows":[
{"id":"7","key":"a","value":null},
{"id":"8","key":"A","value":null}
]}

But what I was expecting was the same as range "a" to "az":

$ curl -X POST -d '{"map":"function(doc) { emit(doc.foo, null); }"}' 
'http://127.0.0.1:5984/test_suite_db/_temp_view?startkey="a"&endkey="az";'
{"total_rows":26,"offset":7,"rows":[
{"id":"7","key":"a","value":null},
{"id":"8","key":"A","value":null},
{"id":"9","key":"aa","value":null}
]}
