Properly send in params in the Python API example

[ekohl]

What changes are you introducing?

Python's requests library accepts a dict with params and then properly encodes this to be sent to a server. This avoids the need to manually encode this in our examples.

Why are you introducing these changes? (Explanation, links to references, issues, etc.)

This fixes a build issue in Red Hat's downstream where Pantheon fails on &, but generally is safer and more understandable code.

Anything else to add? (Considerations, potential downsides, alternative solutions you have explored, etc.)

This is an alternative to https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-documentation/pull/3405.

I must admit I haven't tried this on a real system and is solely written based on knowing Python and requests.
