/**
 * Query parameter keys and values appended to the URL.
 * 
 * Both keys and values are converted to strings using {@link String#valueOf(Object)}.
 * 

 * Simple Example:
 * 

 * @GET("/search")
 * Call<ResponseBody> list(@QueryMap Map<String, String> filters);
 * 
 * Calling with {@code foo.list(ImmutableMap.of("foo", "bar", "kit", "kat"))} yields
 * {@code /search?foo=bar&kit=kat}.
 * 
 * Map keys and values representing parameter values are URL encoded by default. Specify
 * {@link #encoded() encoded=true} to change this behavior.
 * 

 * @GET("/search")
 * Call<ResponseBody> list(@QueryMap(encoded=true) Map<String, String> filters);
 * 
 * Calling with {@code foo.list(ImmutableMap.of("foo", "foo+bar"))} yields
 * {@code /search?foo=foo+bar}.
 * 
 * A {@code null} value for the map, as a key, or as a value is not allowed.
