For some reason a number of specs (and docs) have zwsp characters inserted in URLs. This causes crud in the reviews, and really confusing errors around line lengths for people (we count them, but they aren't seen in their editor). This removes them and makes a test to make sure they never come back. Change-Id: Ib6e94725e2716dbb2ff86f272fbe4a6987714444
