Description

Hi All,

Hope all is going well.

After a bit of experimenting with Commons VFS, I've noticed that it doesn't
encode URI's before requesting data, when using the HTTP provider.

This means that if a URI includes spaces, etc, then it VFS fails to be able to
read from it.

The attached patch fixes this by encoding the URI path before making any HTTP
requests.

Cheers,

Marcus
