file/folder names with spaces break tag listings

[bj-s]

Context

Built-in tags plugin

Bug description

When a file with an inline listing (or any of its parent folders) contains a space in its name, the listing fails silently. Instead of a listing e.g. the following is rendered:

"tags filename with spaces.md:29-51/name"

<h6 filename="filename" id="tags" spaces.md:29-51_slug="spaces.md:29-51/slug" with="with">
    tags filename with spaces.md:29-51/name
</h6>

Thanks for reporting! Fixed in 3a11e3e. Thanks to the reproduction, I was able to fix this in 5 minutes. This is a perfect issue, as it contains a precise reproduction, is not wordy but very much to the point, and is thus a perfect starting ground for us to investigate and fix the problem.
