Describe the bug

When using an URIencoded string in my url, Axios automatically decodes the slashes.

To Reproduce

See code snippet

Code snippet

const deviceId = 'very/cool/device/å';
const encodedDeviceId = encodeURIComponent(deviceId); // very%2Fcool%2Fdevice%2F%C3%A5

// the request goes to "http://localhost/search/very/cool/device/%C3%A5", giving me a 404 error
axios.get('http://localhost/search/' + encodedDeviceId)
  .then(function (response) {
    console.log(response);
  })
  .catch(function (error) {
    console.log(error);
  });

Expected behavior

I would expect Axios to not decode the slashes in my URL, and the request going to http://localhost/search/very%2Fcool%2Fdevice%2F%C3%A5
