/**
 * <p>
 * Function to apply URI escaping rules.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * Usage: fn:encode-for-uri($uri-part as xs:string?)
 * as xs:string
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * This class applies the URI escaping rules (with one exception), to the string
 * supplied as $uri-part, which typically represents all or part of a URI. The
 * effect of the function is to escape a set of identified characters in the
 * string. Each such character is replaced in the string by an escape sequence,
 * which is formed by encoding the character as a sequence of octets in UTF-8,
 * and then representing each of these octets in the form %HH, where HH is the
 * hexadecimal representation of the octet.
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * If $uri-part is the empty sequence, returns the zero-length string.
 * </p>
 * 
 * 
 * <p>
 * To ensure that escaped URIs can be compared using string comparison
 * functions, this function must always generate hexadecimal values using the
 * upper-case letters A-F.
 * </p>
