/**
 * Builds a URL with query parameters appended.
 *
 * @param base - The base URL string
 * @param params - An object of key-value pairs to append as query parameters
 * @returns The complete URL string with query parameters
 *
 * @remarks
 * **Prototype pollution warning:** This function does not filter out
 * prototype-polluting keys (`__proto__`, `constructor`, `prototype`).
 * If processing user-controlled input, sanitize with the appropriate
 * `removePrototype*` helper before calling this function:
 * - `removePrototype` — shallow sanitization of a single object
 * - `removePrototypeDeep` — recursive sanitization of a single object (for deeply nested data)
 * - `removePrototypeMap` — shallow sanitization of an array of objects
 * - `removePrototypeMapDeep` — recursive sanitization of an array of objects (for deeply nested data)
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * buildUrl("https://example.com", { page: "1", q: "search" });
 * // "https://example.com/?page=1&q=search"
 *
 * buildUrl("https://example.com/path", { foo: "bar" });
 * // "https://example.com/path?foo=bar"
 * ```
