$urlRouterProvider.otherwise breaks routes with tildes.

[ddelemeny]

Version : 0.2.18

Problem : using ui-sref, urls with tildes are wrongly redirected to the "default" state defined with $urlRouterProvider.otherwise, even if the correct route is resolved and executed.
Probably caused by 02e9866

Plunkr example

Confirmed; and thanks for the plunker. A workaround if you'd like to use 0.2.16-0.2.18 is to change your regexp to ~~[a-z]+ for now.

• Path parameters auto-choose the 'string' type
• If a path params has a regular expression, we still auto-choose the 'string' type, but apply the regexp to it
• the 'string' type needs an escape character (not url-encoding) to specially encode/decode slashes. tilde was chosen as that character

I thought we had put this issue to bed, but hadn't considered the interplay with regexp!
Sorry for the troubles!

No worries, thanks for the workaround !
