Description

When a PMD aggregate report in created with PMD plugin 3.9.0 (and underlying PMD 6.0.1) the report contains a link to the java XRef report that intended to take the user straight to the failing line.

In 3.9.0 the link takes you to a "Page not found". This is because the link is formed as  xxx/target/staging/xref/*nnnnnnnnn%20-%20*net/sourceforge/xxxxx  instead of  xxx/target/staging/xref/net/sourceforge/xxxxx.

Here nnnnnnnnn$20-%20 is the description of the relevant module and should not be there
