      Description

      After upgrading to Kite 0.16.0, our Crunch jobs are no longer working correctly, finding 0 splits to process when a constraint value that contains characters which must be percent-encoded is set for a dataset view. For example,

      view.with("field", "/type:string")
      

      The constraint value is triple-encoded in the view URI, but only decoded twice when subsequently loading the view from the URI, resulting in a predicate value that is still improperly encoded.

      For example, "/" is expanded to "%2F" -> "%252F" -> "%25252F". It is first encoded in Constraint#toQueryMap(), then again in URIBuilder#build() when the URI returned from URIPattern#construct(...) is converted to a String, and a third time when the URI returned from View#getUri() is converted to a String when being set as the value of the the kite.inputUri configuration property.

      The encoding that occurs in URIBuilder#build() can be avoided by using URI#getScheme() + ":" + URI#getSchemeSpecificPart(), instead of URI#toString(), when specifying the scheme-specific part of the returned URI.
