Percent characters in filenames aren't properly URL encoded

Created by: RomkeVdMeulen

If I try to navigate to a file that has a percent character in the name, the URL is:

http://gitlab/root/myproject/commits/master/path/%gconf.xml

However, this causes nginx to return 400 Bad Request, since the percent character isn't properly encoded. Manually going to

http://gitlab/root/myproject/commits/master/path/%25gconf.xml

works fine. Gitlab should encode the file URLs so that this is done by default.
