Links in generated rss feeds contains + (plus) signs

[GoogleCodeExporter]

all spaces in links in body of rss feeds are replaced with plus signs.
It has negative side because links like http://bla-bla/tag/bla+bla/
default.aspx and http://bla-bla/tag/bla bla/default.aspx are different for 
IIS 7 and it generates 404 error if a user tries to use a link with 
pluses. 

There is a workaround for IIS 7 but it decrease security (see explanation 
here http://blogs.iis.net/thomad/archive/2007/12/17/iis7-rejecting-urls-
containing.aspx)

For example, in Tim Heuer's blog: if we open rss feed we will find a link 
to the Trusted Application tag (http://timheuer.com/blog/tags/trusted
+application/default.aspx)

the same tag in the tag cloud will look like http://timheuer.com/blog/Tags/
trusted%20application/default.aspx

So, it would be nice to generate links in rss feeds without pluses

I think we should look into fixing this one for the next release.

There seems to be a minor issue with the TagLinks plug-in for the FCKEditor 
which
causes the first space in a tag to be replaced with a plus sign. I think that 
the
author's intent was for all spaces to be replaced with plus signs. Yet from this
issue it seems that it's better to leave spaces as they are, or even possibly
HTML-encode them upon insertion.

Anyways, the attached patch removed the space replacement from the TagLinks 
plugin. I
could change it to HTML encode the tags if that is the preferred behavior.
