[issue14395] sftp: downloading files with % in name fails due to logging

[Parand Darugar]

New submission from Parand Darugar <tdarugar at yahoo.com>:

Attempting to download a file with a "%" as part of the name (eg. "test%sfile") , sftp.get fails with:

File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/logging/__init__.py", line 328, in getMessage
    msg = msg % self.args
TypeError: not enough arguments for format string

This appears to be because of the logging in sftp.py:

    def _log(self, level, msg, *args):
        self.logger.log(level, msg, *args)

I'm able to work around it by escaping the "%" to "%%" before calling sftp.get .
