"#" in query value redirect to homepage

[gsambrotta]

Describe the bug
When a search is done with a "#" symbol in it, the query fail or it gets redirect to the homepage.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. go to homepage and search for "C#"
2. you will see that the search is not done and we stay on the homepage

Expected behavior
I would expect the search to bring me to the search page results with the results for "C#"

Additional context
The "#" is intepreted as anchor in the url.
In this way the application doesn't find the type anymore which is mandatory to sucessfully land on the search page.
Check search.tsx line 435 ca.

Hey @gsambrotta !

I found a similar issue while using "&" as well when the rest of the query disappears. I guess encoding the search query using encodeURIComponent() before searching it would be an apt solution in this case? I can either implement it in place of queryNoWitheSpace() or I can create a new function. What would you recommend?
