Partial escape in query string to make search work again

[tkvogt]

fixes #262 http-types and http-client had to be extended for partial escape. These versions are now in stackage quite a while. I built the structure that I assumed you had in mind (SearchRepoMod), but it is very tedious and in my opinion not worth the trouble. So I used two styles in GitHub.Endpoints.Search

• Using SearchRepoMod in: searchRepos
• Constructing the query directly: searchCode' [("q", [QE "language", QN ":", QE "haskell"]), ..

@tkvogt : Thanks for this PR!
It's been a while; do you want to finish this, fixing the conflicts and what remained to be done?

[tkvogt]

This is so long ago. I just remeber that it worked and was good enough for me. It turned into some kind of beauty contest, which I had no time for.

I understand. Sorry for that.

My priorities are rather:

1. the functionality is faithful to the GitHub API
2. there are tests or demos so the functionality can be verified

I didn't look closely at 1., but I noticed that 2. is satisfied (AllHaskellRepos).

If you use stack, you can reference this pull request and try it like

- git: https://github.com/tkvogt/github.git
  commit: 0e157e2e9c2f75e44e34bc0ffe67f2155326eba1

In my memory it worked. Of course If you somehow finish it, you are the hero.

Got enough on my plate. I suppose this has to wait for someone with a genuine interest in this functionality to pick it up...
