URL-encode special characters in unsanitized paths

Unlike for internal links, external links are never sanitized. When an
external link contained an apostrophe or a double-quote character, it
would prematurely terminate the href property of the containing <a> tag
and break the link.

Paths in internal and external links are now passed through a new
url_encode function, which replaces quote characters with the
percent-encoded equivalent.
