Labels with slashes and spaces are URL-encoded

[Jolly-Pirate]

Here's a little test to demonstrate the problem in rtorrent 0.9.8: Added this to the rtorrent.rc, to send the label ($d.custom1=) to a shell script to log it in a text file, after rehashing a torrent method.set_key = event.download.hash_done,whatever,"execute2={/myscript.sh,$d.custom1=}"

If the label contains a path, i.e. label with sublabels, or if it contains white spaces, those characters are URL encoded!

For example,

• Label in rutorrent: Label1/Sublabel2 with spaces/Label3

• Problematic output in the bash shell script and within the $d.custom1= variable: Label1%2Sublabel2%20with%20spaces%2Sublabel3

This is a big problem because I'm configuring the .rc file to move folders based on the label and sublabels, but the resulting folders contain the URL-encoded strings and do not respect the proper path creation with subfolders.

This is not an issue with rTorrent, it's simply how ruTorrent stores the fields. Here's some more info from a previous ticket: https://github.com/rakshasa/rtorrent/issues/1050#issuecomment-1140436216
