      mongorestore treats % characters as URL escape characters instead of literal characters when parsing collection names:

      marko$ mongodump --archive --port 44444 | mongorestore --archive --port 44444
2019-05-13T11:12:16.346-0400    writing admin.system.version to archive on stdout
2019-05-13T11:12:16.348-0400    done dumping admin.system.version (1 document)
2019-05-13T11:12:16.348-0400    writing redacted.test<% env %>test to archive on stdout
2019-05-13T11:12:16.351-0400    done dumping redacted.test<% env %>test (1 document)
2019-05-13T11:12:16.360-0400    Failed: corruption found in archive; ParserConsumer.BodyBSON() ( invalid URL escape "% e" )

      It should not treat % characters as URL escape characters when parsing collection names since they are valid characters to use in collection names according to https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/limits/#restrictions-on-collection-names.
