Bug Fix: Special characters in password are not escaped

[FelixLC]

#172 is still happening when special characters find their way in a password

[FelixLC]

The test suite is quite scattered around multiple files; I tried to test using docker-compose and init config but I feel it would be better to test filteredUrl in a unit test what do you think ?

@FelixLC unit test works

Any updates? Also see #774

This seems to work. I just tried changing the MySQL password to "12p@ss*word34" and the password was filtered correctly to ***
And there is already a unit test in place: filters the password in test/url.test.js

[tsonev7]

Any idea when this will be pushed to npm ?

This seems to have been landed in v5.5.0. Thanks @sushantdhiman

Hello, It seem that there is still a problem when password have : inside
For example, "12p:@ss*word34" it would return 'password authentication failed for user'. I tried to encode the password via URIencode, but not help.
