URI-encoding when redirecting legacy URLs to /content 

Testing of this functionality revealed that the query part containing +
symbols (as replacement for spaces in the parameter values) isn't
forwarded properly as the + symbols are URI-encoded (this is a bug on
the part of the `RequestContext::get_query()` the result of which
already contains URI-encoded +'s).
