The BNF requirements on query-string are:
query = *( pchar / "/" / "?" )
pchar = unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims / ":" / "@"
unreserved = ALPHA / DIGIT / "-" / "." / "_" / "~"
sub-delims = "!" / "$" / "&" / "'" / "(" / ")"
/ "*" / "+" / "," / ";" / "="
'|' characters is only permitted when %-encoded.
Squid is expected to deliver properly %-encoded URLs to helpers, logs,
and any outgoing messages regardless of how it was received.
