Ampersands in `icontains` filter returns inconsistent results based on if
the ampersand is the last character or not. Replacing the ampersand
character with `&` fixes the issue. The following examples illustrate
the issue, assuming there is one record with `field = 'Fish & Chips'`:
{{{
query1 = 'Fish &'
Model.objects.filter(field__icontains=query1)
# returns a result
query2 = 'Fish & Chips'
Model.objects.filter(field__icontains=query2)
# returns no results
query3 = 'Fish & Chips'
Model.objects.filter(field__icontains=query3)
# returns a result
}}}
