Add String Escape Utils to Nifi Expression Language (redo)
jira:[NIFI-2460](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2460)
Added functions to escape and unescape common transport formats that are
supported by common-lang's
[StringEscapeUtils](https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringEscapeUtils.html).
Since I added ten functions, I created a new section in the Documentation.
I also moved URL encode and decode there too.
Don't add a lot of unit tests since I'm directly piping it through to
[StringEscapeUtils](https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/apidocs/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringEscapeUtils.html)
and they have extensive testing
[there](https://github.com/apache/commons-lang/blob/master/src/test/java/org/apache/commons/lang3/StringEscapeUtilsTest.java).
The test are most to verify that it is going to the right function.
