[JENKINS-53439] Variables are not substituted for repository browser url

[jenkins-infra-bot]

Given: a project TESTPROJ with mercurial repository browser URL configured as http://server:5000/Development/${JOB_NAME}/

Expected: URL should be replaced to http://server:5000/Development/TESTPROJ/...

Result http://server:5000/Development/$%7BJOB_NAME%7D/...

 

The same issue occurs when using a default repository browser and the repository URL is configured with a variable

  This issue is still valid. It also shows in the job 'Changes'; the parameter in the Changeset revision url isn't replaces either.
  
  We are also using the Jira plugin, the 'Update relevant issues' feature also suffers this issue since the Jira tickets are also updated with comments with the corrupt url.
