Issue
"Backgrounds" settings app does not accept legal filename. Specifically, a filename with %20 in it.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/elementary/wallpapers/c5a5e8208a851069bf93b3ccdab7bac158efa11f/Pablo%20Garcia%20Saldana.jpg
  2. Name the file Pablo%20Garcia%20Saldana.jpg with the %20
  3. Move to a directory that the "Background" app sources for images
  4. Select the image thumbnail
  5. The background will not change to that image; (for me, it changes to Adwaita 7680x4320)
  6. Replace the %20 in the filenames with
  7. Re-open the background app
  8. Select the thumbnail
  9. The background will be set correctly

Expected behaviour
Any filename works correctly
