```javascript
/**
 * aBlocks — Query Param Passthrough (frontend).
 *
 * Reads tracked query params (ref, utm_*, …) from the current URL and appends
 * whichever are present to every "tagged" link on the page. A link is tagged
 * when it (or a wrapping block) carries the configured CSS class — so it works
 * both when the class sits on the <a> and when Gutenberg puts it on the block
 * wrapper with the <a> nested inside.
 *
 * Config is injected before this file via wp_add_inline_script as
 * window.ABlocksLinkPassthrough = { keys: string[], linkClass: string }.
