URI.uriUnescapeString

Unescapes a whole escaped string.

If any of the characters in illegal_characters or the character zero appears as an escaped character in escaped_string then that is an error and NULL will be returned. This is useful it you want to avoid for instance having a slash being expanded in an escaped path element, which might confuse pathname handling.
