Encode the pound/hash/number symbol (#) #48

Description

@Ansis100

The URL code for # is %23. When a WebDAV server receives a URL containing a literal #, it ignores everything after the symbol (e.g. http://host.com/file#1234.txt becomes http://host.com/file), presumably because # is reserved for HTML anchors.

Now, webdav_client uses Uri.encodeFull to encode URLs. From the docs:

All characters except uppercase and lowercase letters, digits and the characters !#$&'()*+,-./:;=?@_~ are percent-encoded.

This means that if any method from webdav_client receives a file path containing the symbol #, it will not encode it and the server will receive a truncated request URL, which results in unexpected behaviour.
