Colon inside of a link gets double encoded

[joeworkman]

If I add a colon inside of a link, it will get double encoded. Example:

/archives/?q=title:example

The above will get encoded to

/archives/?q=title%253Aexample

The reason for this is that a : is %3a. However, for some reason, the % inside of that is then getting encoded into %25. This results in the output becoming %253A

If you can host your own version of the link.js plugin, then this might fix it: https://temp.staticsave.com/67d377f381e55.js

It's version 4.3.0 with the isEnabled() fix from 4.5.0 added. The bug was introduced in 4.4.0 so this should solve the problem until we get a bugfix release.
