Historically we have declined to try to provide real support for URLs that contain %2F in the path, but they seem to be popping up more often, especially in (arguably ill-considered) REST APIs that shoehorn entire paths into individual path elements. The obvious thing to do is to introduce a URL.RawPath field that records the original encoding of Path and then consult it during URL.String and URL.RequestURI. The problem with the obvious thing is that it breaks backward compatibility: if someone parses a URL into u, modifies u.Path, and calls u.String, they expect the result to use the modified u.Path and not the original raw encoding. Split the difference by treating u.RawPath as a hint: the observation is that there are many valid encodings of u.Path. If u.RawPath is one of them, use it. Otherwise compute the encoding of u.Path as before. If a client does not use RawPath, the only change will be that String selects a different valid encoding sometimes (the original passed to Parse). This ensures that, for example, HTTP requests use the exact encoding passed to http.Get (or http.NewRequest, etc). Also add new URL.EscapedPath method for access to the actual escaped path. Clients should use EscapedPath instead of reading RawPath directly. All the old workarounds remain valid. Fixes #5777. Might help #9859. Fixes #7356. Fixes #8767. Fixes #8292. Fixes #8450. Fixes #4860. Fixes #10887. Fixes #3659. Fixes #8248. Fixes #6658. Reduces need for #2782.
