Fetch: Add documentation for query parameters

Did this get completed? Can't see anything in the README on how to do a GET with query parameters (not body).

Building URLs, including query parameters, is outside the scope of the Fetch API. We use jQuery's $.param and window.encodeURIComponent to build a URL before passing it into window.fetch.

My API wrapper handles this here https://github.com/glazedio/frisbee/blob/673cff2b6887af026330e45bdaad9d4dbdeb41ea/src/frisbee.js#L91-L95 if you want some inspiration. I think I need to encodeURIComponent though if it's a browser.

Why is it outside the scope of the fetch API? Query parameters are part of the URL spec.

[dgraham]

You can use URLSearchParams via URL.searchParams or new URLSearchParams() to construct the query string content.
