[cups.general] '#' in device URIs

Hi,

I just had this bug report:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=202977

The problem is that smb: URIs can get truncated if there is a password
containing the '#' character, like this:

  DeviceURI smb://test:test123#@domain/printserver/printer

which gets read as:

  DeviceURI smb://test:test123

Should CUPS treat the '#' comment character in the same way that bash
does, i.e. treat it as a comment character only when at the beginning of
a word?

Tim.
