Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Do not URI escape in server side includes"
This reverts commit 960f0e275616cadc29671a218d7fb9b69eb35588.
This commit introduced
- an infinite loop, found by OSS-Fuzz, which could be easily fixed.
- an algorithm with quadratic runtime
- a security issue, see
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769760
A better approach is to add an option not to escape URLs at all
which libxml2 should have possibly done in the first place.
