Closes #2213
When merging request query params with the long URL ones, right before redirecting, this PR makes sure the request ones are parsed manually so that they are preserved verbatim.
By using
$request->getQueryParams()
we were getting affected by a historical decisions in PHP, where query params are promoted as vars, and therefore, characters not allowed in variable names (like spaces) where replaced by something else.Since we do not rely in this side effect, manually parsing the query string prevents this behavior and preserves params with "special" chars verbatim.
