Actually, some characters need to be escaped when used in a URL within
a \href command, but not all of them. `org-latex-plain-text' escapes too
many of them and `org-link-escape' doesn't escape enough (and we don't
need to rely on it).
According to hyperref documentation # and ~ need not be escaped. Though,
%, { and } do. I'm not sure about \, ^ and _.
Also, I don't think \url command has the same problem, so escaping can
happen later in the function, not at the `raw-path' level.
