When using certain parameters together in 'composer show', specifically '-s --outdated', the root package itself is inspected for its latest version. If the git repository it belongs to does not have any tags yet this would return FALSE, while the next call to printMeta requires a PackageInterface or NULL, causing a crash.
Refs #5808
this issue was happening due to realpath() function
that cannot work with "file://" path.
For local repositories it is valid url but not valid for realpath()
Url encode all non alphanumeric characters in project name for GitLabDriver.
If the project name has "." characters in it, which is supported in Gitlab, the Gitlab API will 404 when requesting the branches or tags of the repository. This commit urlencodes all non alphanumeric characters in the project name in requests to the Gitlab API.

This alters the default flag for loadOptions in
\Composer\Package\Loader\ArrayLoader to true; and alters the assumption
of the test to reflect this change.
**Rationale**
The `\Composer\Package\Loader\ArrayLoader` test (defined in
tests/Composer/Test/Package/Loader/ArrayLoaderTest.php) assumed that a
new `\Composer\Package\Loader\ArrayLoader` instance would be always
created with the optional flag loadOptions set to true.
```php
$this->loader = new \Composer\Package\Loader\ArrayLoader(null, true);
```
This change alters the general case to reflect the default assumption as
defined in the test.

Altered the test for ArrayLoader to use the default loadConfig flag, and to test the true and false states for the loadConfig flag
