Fixes #748. Related to #774.

ImageExtractorConfig.ImageRegex, used by the old ImageExtractor (not ImageExtractorNew), is:

[^"/\*?<>|:]+\.(?:jpe?g|png|gif|svg)

The negated character class does not exclude newline, so a wiki-markup image link broken across a line, e.g.

[[File:
Berlin_Map.png]]

is matched as \nBerlin_Map.png, producing a foaf:depiction/thumbnail IRI with a literal newline in it, which is invalid — this is the "escaped '\n' in extracted URIs" pattern reported in #774 and #748.

This is exactly #748's reported bug: a <gallery> image line whose preceding caption ends right at the line break leaves a \n immediately before the next filename, which the old regex happily includes in the match (confirmed by reproducing #748's own example gallery markup against both the old and new pattern).

ImageExtractorNew.scala already excludes newline explicitly in its own character-by-character parser (c != '\n') — this brings the regex used by the old extractor in line with it, per the root cause already identified in the #774 discussion.

Verified with a standalone regex check mirroring the character class (java.util.regex/PCRE character-class semantics are equivalent for this pattern): the old pattern matches "\nBerlin_Map.png" out of "File:\nBerlin_Map.png"; the new pattern matches only "Berlin_Map.png". A normal single-line filename is unaffected by either version. No Scala/sbt toolchain available locally to run the project's own test suite.

Exclude CR as well as LF from ImageRegex.

MediaExtractor uses this regex on template text. With a CR-only line break, input such as foo.jpg\rbar.png can produce one match that contains \r. WikiUtil.wikiEncode preserves that character. The value then reaches URL and IRI construction and can produce an invalid media URI or BAD URI output.

Thanks for the PR, @ManasBagul23 it would be nice to include a couple of tests together with this change to showcase how this new behavior works. There is already an ImageExtractorTest class that we could reuse

ImageExtractorConfig.ImageRegex, used by the old ImageExtractor (not
ImageExtractorNew), is [^"/\*?<>|:]+\.(?:jpe?g|png|gif|svg). The
negated character class does not exclude newline, so a wiki-markup
image link broken across a line, e.g.

    [[File:
    Berlin_Map.png]]

is matched as \nBerlin_Map.png, producing a foaf:depiction/thumbnail
IRI with a literal newline in it, which is invalid.

ImageExtractorNew.scala already excludes newline explicitly in its own
character-by-character parser (c != '\n'); this brings the regex used
by the old extractor in line with it.

Verified with a standalone regex check mirroring the character class
(java.util.regex/PCRE character-class semantics for this pattern are
equivalent): the old pattern matches "\nBerlin_Map.png" out of
"File:\nBerlin_Map.png", the new pattern matches only
"Berlin_Map.png"; a normal single-line filename is unaffected by
either version. No Scala toolchain available locally to run the sbt
test suite.

Related to dbpedia#774
Adds two cases to the existing ImageExtractorTest class, as requested
in review: a broken-across-a-line filename ("File:\nBerlin_Map.png")
must match only "Berlin_Map.png", not the leading newline; an ordinary
single-line filename must still match unchanged.

Added two cases to ImageExtractorTest covering ImageExtractorConfig.ImageRegex directly: the broken-across-a-line filename from the bug report (File:\nBerlin_Map.png) now matches only Berlin_Map.png, and an ordinary single-line filename still matches unchanged. Also rebased onto master now that #846 merged (unrelated file, no conflict). Thanks for the review!

Traced this further and confirmed it also fixes #748: the reported <gallery> corruption (a caption ending right at a line break, e.g. ...Lunar near side]]\nMoon Farside LRO.jpg|...) is the same ImageRegex bug — the missing \n exclusion lets the newline before the next filename (and in this case, trailing caption text) get swept into the match. Updated the PR description to reference it.
