[whatwg/url] Revert "Editorial: use an encode set in the query state" (#517)

This reverts commit bc7ac863aead17d6447133eb0de89a88bd6801f1.

When I started looking at what it would take to do this for application/x-www-form-urlencoded I realize that this is not editorial at all and in fact changes behavior.

If the input is U+0080 that would become 0xC2 0x80 when UTF-8 encoded. We then turn that into U+00C2 U+0080. We then UTF-8 percent-encode that, creating %C3%82%C2%80 rather than %C2%80.

I think the only way to go here is to have a byte version of UTF-8 percent-encoding. I guess that could still use the code point sets but it would be a bit messy/weird?
