Description

It isn't used in the codebase. It had previously been removed as a dependency but was added back in https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-learning/pull/1703

https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-learning/pull/1676 removed the query-string package. Several of our plugins still rely on this, though it should still be removed.
