public static String encode(String s)
```
    Encode a string to the "x-www-form-urlencoded" form, enhanced with the UTF-8-in-URL proposal. This is what happens:
    
    The ASCII characters 'a' through 'z', 'A' through 'Z', and '0' through '9' remain the same.
    
    The unreserved characters - _ . ! ~ * ' ( ) remain the same.
    
    The space character ' ' is converted into a plus sign '+'.
    
    All other ASCII characters are converted into the 3-character string "%xy", where xy is the two-digit hexadecimal representation of the character code
    
    All non-ASCII characters are encoded in two steps: first to a sequence of 2 or 3 bytes, using the UTF-8 algorithm; secondly each of these bytes is encoded as "%xx".
    Parameters:
    
    s - The string to be encoded
    
    Returns:
    
    The encoded string
