Using special characters in the name of a scene causes errors about ledfx HOT 2 OPEN

Thanks for the bug report - this is actually a much bigger issue and something that has always existed, we've just never noticed it before!

This is going to take us a bit of time to think about and unpick, since the underlying issue is related to a very old, deep part of LedFx that to be honest, I'm a bit fuzzy on 🤣

There's a few ways for us to tackle it:

• Reject special characters at the frontend
• Use name as the scene id
• Integrate special characters as part of scene id

Each of them have their own positives/negatives that we're gonna need to explore and think about.

From my perspective, rejecting at the frontend is not a good option since it leaves no protection for others using the API.

In the meantime, please don't use any special characters anywhere.
