CLI returned "Unauthorised" when API calls contain * (asterisk) characters #154

When creating project role permissions and I wanted to enter wildcard "*", CLI returned "unauthorised" despite that my API key has the root admin permission, it seems to be similar to urllib module in python.

"Note
If you have API calls which contain * (asterisk) characters, you will need to add the option “safe = ‘’” for the URL encoding. The reason is that Python’s urllib will encode * characters by default, while CloudStack’s internal encoder does not encode them; this results in an authentication failure for your API call. In the above you would replace “urllib.quote_plus(request[k])” with “urllib.quote_plus(request[k], safe=’’)”."
