In narrow links, escape single quotes #2105

Description

@gnprice

When generating a link to a narrow (so in particular when ) and including any arbitrary strings like channel or topic names, we encode most characters other than ASCII letters.

We should expand the list to encode single quotes ('). For some software with heuristics for finding URLs in plain text, those can fool it into thinking that's the end of the URL.
