Refuse an image URL whose source path or query holds a # (closes #286)
check / check (push) Canceled after 0s

A # written as %23 in the source path or query reached the parser
decoded and stayed in the source URL, where Go reads it as the start of
a fragment and drops it before fetching. So each text after the # was
another unsigned spelling of one upstream request, cached under its own
keys. An image URL whose decoded source path or query holds a # is now
refused with 400, signed or not, and README.md's rule for writing a
source path and query says a # cannot be part of either.
