Jenkins input plugin not url encoding job names resulting in 404s

[perzizzle]

Relevant telegraf.conf:

[[inputs.jenkins]]
  name_prefix="infra_"
  url = "http://localhost:8080"

  response_timeout = "5s"

System info:

telegraf --version
Telegraf 1.13.0 (git: HEAD 773e4ca)

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a Jenkins job with spaces

> telegraf --config jenkins.conf --test
infra_jenkins_job,host=jenkinsMaster,name=name,parents=parent,result=FAILURE duration=106285i,result_code=1i 1583529206000000000
2020-03-06T21:21:56Z E! [inputs.jenkins] Error in plugin: [/job/foo bar/job/application - job/feature%2branch/api/json] 404 Not Found

Expected behavior:

We successfully pull job data for every job that doesn't include spaces, if you copy the uri (/job/foo bar/job/application - job/feature%2branch/api/json) into a browser it correctly changes the spaces to %20 and the json blob is returned.

Actual behavior:

We get a 404 for jobs that contain spaces.
