URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs-object-store/issues/384

   **Which part is this question about**
   the `Path::parse` and `PathSegment::parse` API(s).
   
   **Describe your question**
   Right now PathSegment::parse returns InvalidPart if any character within is 
a control character.
   
   As a concrete example: I can create an object `%01.txt` in a GCS bucket 
which I then can't delete through the `object_store` API. This is because:
   1. If I use `Path::parse("\x01.txt")`, this results in an InvalidPart error.
   2. If I use `Path::from("\x01.txt")`, this results in a Path with the raw 
string "%01.txt", which gets percent-encoded _again_ in the GCS client to 
become `%2501.txt`.
   
   
   I don't understand why this is considered an error. Maybe this comes down to 
an inconsistency in object store implementations, where some expect to get safe 
paths from `Path`, and others (like GCS) expect unsafe paths which need 
percent-encoding again? I don't have a lot of context.
   
   **Additional context**
