Cannot specify same parameter twice in the query

[dcermak]

osctiny's handling of dictionary parameters to osc.request prevents the creation of url parameters like &view=status&view=binarylist. requests supports this via:

param = {"view": ["status", "binarylist"]}

but the handling inside Osc.handle_params prevents this behavior from applying:

osc-tiny/osctiny/osc.py

Line 399 in 3e92230

return "&".join(

Could such parameters be supported? It is sadly required to fully utilize some buildservice routes without calling the API endpoint twice or three times

For illustration:

>>> from osctiny import Osc
>>> o = Osc("https://api.opensuse.org")
>>> r = o.request("http://example.com", params={"view": ["a", "b"]})
>>> print(r.url)
http://example.com/?view=%5B%27a%27%2C%20%27b%27%5D
>>> r = o.session.get("http://example.com", params={"view": ["a", "b"]})
>>> print(r.url)
http://example.com/?view=a&view=b

Notice the difference: The latter "correctly" translates the list for the view parameter to multiple key-value pairs in the query. The former incorrectly converts the list to a string and escapes it.
