This includes escaping certain characters found in searchbar links (1st commit) and correctly resolving external links (2nd commit).

Fixes #14505 and #14504.

Unit tests for links with "#" character were also added.

The changes look good but something is broken. Searchbar in generated docs doesn't work (no entries after opening) and is throwing errors to console:

@jchyb jchyb force-pushed the scaladoc/fix-i14505-i14504 branch 2 times, most recently from e834986 to 6ad301f Compare February 22, 2022 09:11
This includes both fixing links found in searchbar, and ones accessible
from method names. In searchbar, links are resolved based on whether
they are absolute (pointing to an external website, like java docs) or
relative (pointing to another sub-website, with root being appended on
runtime). This is achieved by serializing another boolean field in
PageEntry.

Thank you for spotting this as this was not something that happened locally, now I've updated the PR with fixes. I no longer use new URI(_).isAbsolute() as URI parsing seemed to be the issue. Instead, an additional filed for searchData was added describing whether the searchData contains an internal link or one to the external website.

A similar technique with URIs was employed in a previous PR with Inkuire and, as it turns out, the issues would also happen there (just much more rarely), so I updated that in a separate commit. Unfortunately, as I could not add any new fields there the solution ended up being a little "hacky", but I hope it is at least explained elegantly in the comment.
