STR:
1. New file like "D:\abc   123.html".
2. Open the file with Firefox.
3. Copy the url from urlbar.


Actual results:
1. got file:///D:/abc 123.html to clipboard.


Expected results:
1. got file:///D:/abc%20%20%20123.html or file:///D:/abc   123.html (bug 1374850).

I don't know why it happened.

Attached patch fix+test (deleted) — Splinter Review
Given that 'this.editor' is a nsIPlaintextEditor, it's rather surprising
that its Selection behaves the way it does.  I think we should probably
change that so that selection.toString() treats the selected contents
as plaintext if it's fully inside a plaintext editing host, or something.

Anyway, let's do this manually for now to minimize the risk.

nit: while touching this code s/var/let/
also, please align on dots even if we go slightly (I think it's 1 or 2 chars here) over 80 chars, we are not so strict about it.

I managed to reproduce the bug using an older version of Nightly (2017-09-24) on WIndows 10x64, Mac OS X 10.11 and Ubuntu 16.04x64.
I retested everything using beta 57.0b8 and latest Nightly 58 on the same platforms and the bug is not reproducing anymore. I think this issue is fixed.
