Description
Currently the extern parameter on /query accepts a flux AST.
It would be helpful if it could accept flux, and parse to AST.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The requested entry point is the /query endpoint and its extern parameter, which currently accepts a Flux AST. Start by tracing how /query parses extern values; done means raw Flux input is parsed to an AST while the existing AST form remains supported. Add coverage for both accepted forms.
