gopher: Do not translate `?' to `%09'
Since GOPHER support was added in curl `?' character was automatically translated to `%09' (`\t'). However, this behaviour does not seems documented in RFC 4266 and for search selectors it is documented to directly use `%09' in the URL. Apart that several gopher servers in the current gopherspace have CGI support where `?' is used as part of the selector and translating it to `%09' often leads to surprising results. Closes #2910
