Research direction

Start with the linked Ky searchParams documentation, index.js#L275, and the Repl example to understand the API and its encoding behavior. Add project documentation showing how to compose a query URL with searchParams; done means the usage and resulting URL are clear and the parameters are documented as encoded correctly.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

documentation

Need to compose a query URL like https://example.com?a=foo,b=bar

the searchParams API is for you! It also takes care of encoding the params properly.
