fix(uri): ? operator now appends to existing query string (#25831)

## Summary

Fixes #19782.

The `?` operator in `std/uri` was silently overwriting any query string
already present in the URI. This PR makes it append instead — which
matches the docstring ("Concatenates the query parameters") and the
natural expectation when chaining operations.

**Before:**
```nim
let u = parseUri("https://example.com/foo?existing=1") ? {"bar": "qux"}
echo $u  # https://example.com/foo?bar=qux  (existing=1 lost)
```

**After:**
```nim
let u = parseUri("https://example.com/foo?existing=1") ? {"bar": "qux"}
echo $u  # https://example.com/foo?existing=1&bar=qux
```

## Changes

- `lib/pure/uri.nim`: fix `?` to append with `&` when a query string
already exists; add example to `runnableExamples`
- `tests/stdlib/turi.nim`: two new test cases (append to existing query,
empty params preserve existing)
- `changelog.md`: entry under Standard library changes

## Notes

I work with Claude as a co-processor. I'm 56, came to programming late,
and this is genuinely how I learn and contribute. I understand what I'm
submitting, but I didn't write it alone. If your project prefers
human-only contributions, just say so and I'll close without friction.
