The class contains a utility method for converting from
a MIME format called "x-www-form-urlencoded"
to a String
To convert to a String, each character is examined in turn:
The ASCII characters 'a' through 'z',
'A' through 'Z', and '0'
through '9' remain the same.
The plus sign '+'is converted into a
space character ''.
The remaining characters are represented by 3-character
strings which begin with the percent sign,
"%xy", where xy is the two-digit
hexadecimal representation of the lower 8-bits of the character.
