Names of gvfs-fuse directories should be more application friendly

Link to original bug (#723399)
Description
If configured so, gvfs mounts each accessed resource to ~/.gvfs/NAME (or /run/uid/gvfs/NAME).
NAME is derived from the accessed resource, for example:
smb-share:server=SERVERNAME,share=SHARENAME
Some applications, especially all windows applications running on wine or crossover, cannot access this paths.
This is a real big drawback in user experience since it avoids easily opening documents from linux desktop with wine apps.
Solution: Only use characters here that are supported on all platforms (at least no colons).
