#11905 closed Patch - Bug Fix (fixed)
HttpRequest parsing fails on parameters containing encoded & character

Description
Using the services api, while attempting to get the artwork for a recording containing a & in the title the backend would always fail to serve the artwork. The sample http get request was http://master:6544/Content/GetImageFile?StorageGroup=Coverart&FileName=Eastbound+%26+Down+Season+4_coverart.jpg
the current httprequest.cpp first decodes the entire substring after "?" and therefore converts '%26' to '&' then it passes it to the GetParameters method which now reads erroneously an extra parameter. GetParameters decodes each parameter name/value pair with fromPercentEncoding().
Attached is a patch that simply removes the decoding of the entire substring and let GetParameter do the decoding properly.
