irritating ? at the end of URLs

Description

Some requests issued by the Webclient have an superfluous "?" character at the end, e.g.

http://localhost:8080/core/topic/2713?

While not being a serious problem this might confuse the browser's or network proxy's caching heuristic.

From https://developers.google.com/speed/docs/best-practices/caching (thank you mre):

Most proxies, most notably Squid up through version 3.0, do not cache resources with a "?" in their URL even if a Cache-control: public header is present in the response.

Webclient: no trailing "?" in URLs (#483).

Requests issued by the Webclient no longer have an superfluous "?" character at the end.

BREAKING CHANGE

REST Client API:
The RequestParameter's to_query_string method is now responsible for generating the "?" character.
Formerly this was the responsibility of the plugin developer.

If your plugin makes use of

dm4c.restc.createRequestParameter()

you must follow the new to_query_string semantics when constructing URLs.

Close ticket 483.
