Replace BSV stringifyQueryObj with internal buildQueryString utility in GlLink

What does this MR do?

Replace BSV stringifyQueryObj with internal buildQueryString utility in GlLink

Migrate the stringifyQueryObj function out of the BootstrapVue vendor folder into an internal buildQueryString utility in url_utils.js.

The new utility preserves the same RFC 3986-compliant encoding behavior (escaping [!'()*] and preserving commas) while replacing BSV helper dependencies with native JS equivalents.

  • Add buildQueryString to src/utils/url_utils.js with JSDoc
  • Add comprehensive tests in url_utils.spec.js
  • Update GlLink to import from the new internal utility
  • Add missing test coverage for to prop with query and hash objects

Closes #3418 (closed)

If this MR contains changes to processing or storing of credentials or tokens, authorization and authentication methods and other items described in the security review guidelines:

  • Label as security and @ mention @gitlab-com/gl-security/appsec
  • Security reports checked/validated by a reviewer from the AppSec team

Accessibility

If this MR adds or modifies a component, take a few moments to review the following:

  • All actions and functionality can be done with a keyboard.
  • Links, buttons, and controls have a visible focus state.
  • All content is presented in text or with a text equivalent. For example, alt text for SVG, or aria-label for icons that have meaning or perform actions.
  • Changes in a component’s state are announced by a screen reader. For example, changing aria-expanded="false" to aria-expanded="true" when an accordion is expanded.
  • Color combinations have sufficient contrast.
