[settings] Add the uristring setting type

This allows settings to be expanded in a way that is safe to include
within a URI string, such as

  kernel http://10.0.0.1/boot.php?mf=${manufacturer:uristring}

where the ${manufacturer} setting may contain characters that are not
permitted (or have reserved purposes) within a URI.

Since whitespace characters will be URI-encoded (e.g. "%20" for a
space character), this also works around the problem that spaces
within an expanded setting would cause the shell to split command-line
arguments incorrectly.
