Strings with 0x in it won't work with as custom validation params

Are you requesting a feature, reporting a bug or asking a question?

reporting a bug

What is the current behavior?

You create a survey with an input and custom validator for that input. You put in a string with 0x in the survey input (for example an ethereum address). The paramater that goes into the custom validator is not what was in the input. It appears as if it is put in hexadecimal form.

What is the expected behavior?

You create a survey with an input and custom validator for that input. You put in a string with 0x in the survey input (for example an ethereum address). The paramater that goes into the custom validator should be exactly what was typed in the input.

How would you reproduce the current behavior (if this is a bug)?

Create a new survey with a custom validator and log the paramaters.

@MarissaHudson I made the fix. I did not happy with the work-around, but I could not came with something better. We are going to release new minor version today. The fix will be there.

Thank you, Andrew

@MarissaHudson Yes, indeed. I forgot to use my new function in expression engine. I have added a new unit test and fix it. It will work fine from v1.1.15 that we will likely release next Tuesday. Sorry about that.

Thank you, Andrew
