Escaping overlay text seems impossible in the version 1.41.0

[DenisLaboureyras]

Describe the bug in a sentence or two.

When I want to use the overlay text transformation, I can't use the slash / character, or comma. It was working fine with a previous version (I was escaping manually these characters, thanks to this article : https://support.cloudinary.com/hc/en-us/articles/202521512-How-to-add-a-special-characters-in-text-overlays-).

Issue Type (Can be multiple)

[ ] Build - Can’t install or import the SDK
[ ] Babel - Babel errors or cross browser issues
[ ] Performance - Performance issues
[X] Behaviour - Functions aren’t working as expected (Such as generate URL)
[ ] Documentation - Inconsistency between the docs and behaviour
[ ] Incorrect Types - For typescript users who are having problems with our d.ts files
[ ] Other (Specify)

Steps to reproduce

Use the following function:
await cloudinary.uploader.upload(url, { transformation: [ { overlay: { text: 'text with a slash / or an escaped slash %E2%88%95', }, }, ], });
The generated file will have escaped characters instead of /
