Wrong html entities in <title> tag after PR 7463

[jagbarcelo]

We have spotted an issue with PR 7463.

Before this change, our <title> tags with special characters were rendered just fine (plain raw text). Now we have them shown as hex html entities but the & character is being escaped, so they are not rendered properly:

If you go to the actual html output of the page it has:

but it should have:
<title>P&#xE1;gina de prueba - my-site</title>

Summing up, the & character in the á entity should not be escaped to &xE1;

BTW, the <title> tag in TheBlogTheme is rendered with (which is fine):
<title>{{ "PageTitle" | shape_new | shape_stringify }}</title>

Encoding issue, I will fix this

How is your title rendered since you mention that it's fine in the Blog Theme with <title>{{ "PageTitle" | shape_new | shape_stringify }}</title>

See my last comment in #7498

[jagbarcelo]

I meant that TheBlogTheme is correct in using <title>{{ "PageTitle" | shape_new | shape_stringify }}</title>, not that the output of that was correct (which was not).

@jagbarcelo thanks for the confirmation. Checking @jtkech 's answer now.
