GLib.uri_unescape_string
function uri_unescape_string(escaped_string: String, illegal_characters: String): String { // Gjs wrapper for g_uri_unescape_string() }
Unescapes a whole escaped string.
If any of the characters in illegal_characters or the character zero appears as an escaped character in escaped_string then that is an error and null will be returned. This is useful it you want to avoid for instance having a slash being expanded in an escaped path element, which might confuse pathname handling.
