```
public static java.lang.String stringToPathSegment(java.lang.String string)
```
    Method that makes sure that passed in string is valid "path segment" string. It achieves it by potentially changing it, replacing illegal characters in it with legal ones.
    Note: this method considers empty string as "valid path segment", it is caller duty to ensure empty string is not used as path segment alone.
    This method is simplistic on purpose, and if frequently used, best if results are cached (per session)
