Add Multiple Query Parameters from a Query String

Demonstrates Rest.AddQueryParams, which adds several query parameters at once from a query-string in the form field1=value1&field2=value2.

Background. This is a convenient shortcut for populating many parameters from a single pre-built query string rather than calling AddQueryParam repeatedly.
