Tilde ('~') character is incorrectly URL-encoded with Python 2

I'm referring to the older, unresolved issue here (it seems I cannot create a new issue nor comment on the older one over at issues.apache.org though I have a long-time user there...):

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LIBCLOUD-979

I can confirm that the reported issue happens also for Amazon S3, not only for CEPH as originally reported. And the problem is indeed that libcloud URL-encodes the tilde '~' sign to '%7E', which it shouldn't according to RFC 3986.

The problem seems specific to Python 2 because in Python 3 urllib.quote() has been already updated to not URL-encode the tilde '~' sign anymore:

https://bugs.python.org/issue16285

Because of this, I think the correct fix (other than the patch proposed in LIBCLOUD-979) would be adding the tilde '~' character to the safe characters in the urlquote() utility function in utils/py3.py to ensure consistent behavior between Python 2 and Python 3.

Commencez dans utils/py3.py, au niveau de l’utilitaire urlquote(), et comparez son comportement sous Python 2 avec Python 3 et la RFC 3986. Le travail est terminé lorsque les caractères tilde restent systématiquement non encodés dans les deux versions de Python, y compris dans le cas Amazon S3 décrit dans l’issue.
