Note that this part is _required_ after previous patch, because otherwise gitweb could generate path_info links which point to different view than intended, when filename contains '..' in it, like for example some test vectors in git test suite, for example files in t/t5515

For what is worth:
Acked-by: Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com>

BTW. I wanted to test this using gitweb-Mechanize test from Lea Wiemann GSoC 2008 work on gitweb caching, but I couldn't make it run as single individual test (cd t && ./t9503-gitweb-Mechanize.sh); it requires to run as "make test" and I didn't want that. I could have resurrected my initial version of Test::WWW::Mechanize::CGI test...

Minor nit: this contain independent change 'filename' -> 'file_name', but I think it is not worth separating...

Nice trick (and required change).

Side note: I wonder if we should use esc_url or esc_param here...
