zim url_encodes the whole mailto-link, so also the ? which separates
mailto: from subject= is replaced by "%3F".

A patch for seperate url_encoding of the two parameters is attached (but
for some pages, I still don't get the whole body. Will look at this
later).

@Japp: do you prefere the launchpad merge request feature for small
patches like these?

best regards,
 stefan
