The filename fallback cannot contain the "%" character

Link referenced issues.

Thanks Liam, I just pushed a commit, but I can't see a note about it here? Would you be able to check?
Did I do anything wrong?

We should go after any illegal characters that could be uploaded and included in a filename.

@see https://www.mtu.edu/umc/services/websites/writing/characters-avoid/

I've made changes to filter out the remaining illegal characters as mentioned in #9.

Couldn't push a new commit or my own branch due to a 403 from gitlab. Hence, uploading a patch for it.

Thanks. It would be great to have a test for this.

I feel the transliterate removes most of the characters here https://www.mtu.edu/umc/services/websites/writing/characters-avoid/ but I've added what @sidharth_soman has changed.

I found another issue I think but when I try to upload a file that's called Proposed_Snow_Fence_[%#&{}\<>*?\- 20%_0-1.pdf it gets the name of - 20%_0-1.pdf because of the back slash.

I tried to apply the patch, but it would not apply to 6.2.2 nor 6.2.x-dev.

After applying the changes manually, I tested it with a filename which has spaces "test picture with spaces.png".
It worked if I don't select the "Sanitize file name" setting in the element configuration.
If I do select it, I cannot open the file from the results listing, instead I get the following error:
The requested URL "https://my-cms.lndo.site/system/files/webform/test%2520picture%2520with%2520spaces_0.png" was not found on this server.

Here is a patch which will hopefully apply to 6.2.x.
