Error: Parse Error: Invalid header value char

[BBerastegui]

I was testing several sites, and I found this error on one specific example:

blc --filter-level 3 --exclude-internal -r -f -o https://[REDACTED].com

RequestError: Parse Error: Invalid header value char

This seems to be a known error that can be "solved": nodejs/node#22064 (comment)

Environment:

• Environment: node:latest docker image
• Node version: v12.10.0
• broken-link-checker version: 0.8.0

Do you encounter this issue when using the currently unreleased v0.8 (via git) ?

Do you have a stack trace?

I think I'd rather wait for Node.js to fix this, though.

From nodejs/node#21509 (comment):

The \u0001 turns into a control character when encoded to ASCII or UTF-8 and those are rejected as a security measure. That's working as expected.
