Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/Telmate/proxmox-api-go/issues/218

This issue shows itself when attempting to update a resource with an SSH key that has : in a comment, which is common in workflows involving smartcards and GPG-agent. Users of this package attempting to add an offending key (including through downstream projects such as in this case in the terraform proxmox provider will get an error.

For example, one of my keys ends like this:

ssh-rsa AAAA...== cardno:18 228 342

This URL encoding currently happens in ConfigQemu.UpdateConfig() on line 456.
