Generalize workaround for taskw character encoding #1104

@scross01

Description

@scross01

The Logseq and Todoist plugins both implement a workaround for characters " [ and ] getting URL encoded as &dquote; &open; and &close; in the taskwarrior task description and content by replacing the over-encoded characters with alternate ' and to avoid the encoding logic.

This issue is originally discussed here in the Logseq PR, and again here in the Todoist PR.

The root cause of the issue in the taskw python package ralphbean/taskw#172

While this issue remains unresolved in taskw, or until replacement package is used #1078, it's proposed to move the character replacement method to the base Issue class and apply it to the relevant fields in every service.
