Object-typed query parameters with explode=true (the default) were passed as raw Python dicts to httpx, which called str() on them — producing Python repr syntax (single quotes, capitalized booleans) instead of proper query parameter serialization. Per the OpenAPI specification, style=form with explode=true on objects expands each property as a separate query parameter (e.g. ?myAttribute=true). This change handles dict values in both the explode=true and explode=false branches of _serialize_query_params, using the existing _query_scalar_to_str helper for correct boolean formatting. Fixes PrefectHQ#2857

Writing exploded object properties straight into serialized can silently drop other query params with the same name, because a dict only keeps one value per key. For example, a valid route with both a top-level id query parameter and an object parameter whose property is also id will lose one value depending on insertion order, so the outbound request no longer represents the caller input. This branch should preserve duplicates (e.g., list values or key/value pair sequence) instead of overwriting.

Good fix with solid test coverage. The explode=true expansion and boolean serialization via _query_scalar_to_str are both correct per the OpenAPI spec.

Fixes #2857
Object-typed query parameters with
explode=true(the default forstyle=form) were passed as raw Python dicts to httpx, which stringified them usingstr()— producing{'myAttribute': True}instead of expanding properties into separate query parameters as the OpenAPI spec requires.The fix handles dict values in
_serialize_query_params:?myAttribute=true)Three tests added covering explicit
explode=True, defaultexplode=None(→ true), and empty dict omission.
