 *
 * The `querystring` module is a alias for `querystring-parse` and

 * As their names suggest, `querystring-parse` adds support for parsing
 * Query String data (`Y.QueryString.parse`) and `querystring-stringify` for serializing
 * JavaScript data into Query Strings (`Y.QueryString.stringify`).  You may choose to
 * include either of the submodules individually if you don't need the
 * complementary functionality, or include the rollup for both.
