Deleting collections with special characters doesn't work

[lazka]

Describe the bug

If I create a collection with a "+" in the name I can no longer interact with it. Deleting, importing etc all fail.

It looks as if there is no escaping happening when building URLs for the typesense API (??)

To Reproduce

• Add collection
• Name "foo+bar", add a dummy field
• Go to the collections list and try to delete the collection
• There are errors and nothing happens

Expected behavior

• The collection is deleted

Environment (please complete the following information):

• Application mode: Desktop
• OS: [e.g.Windows 11, Linux Ubuntu, MacOS] Linux
• Browser: [e.g. chrome, firefox, safari] Firefox
• Version: [e.g. 22] 122
• Typesense Server version: 0.25.2

Hi, thanks for reporting.
I can confirm the bug. However, we are using the official https://github.com/typesense/typesense-js sdk to make the api queries in this project. I think this need to be fixed there typesense/typesense-js#194 If it is not, will create workarounds here.
