This function will convert the given input string to an URL encoded string and
15
return that as a new allocated string. All input characters that are not a-z,
16
A-Z or 0-9 will be converted to their "URL escaped" version (%NN where NN is a
17
two-digit hexadecimal number).
19
If the 'length' argument is set to 0, curl_escape() will use strlen() on the
20
input 'url' string to find out the size.
22
You must free() the returned string when you're done with it.
24
A pointer to a zero terminated string or NULL if it failed.
