Adds Form Format for Single Record in application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Adds the Form format to read/write a single record in the application/x-www-form-urlencoded format. #60199 (Shaun Struwig).
Adds the Form format to handle reading and writing of a single record using the application/x-www-form-urlencoded MIME type.

Why it matters

This feature enables ClickHouse to import and export data in the common application/x-www-form-urlencoded format, which is widely used in web forms and HTTP requests. It simplifies integration with web applications and services that send or receive data in this format.

How to use it

Use the Form format in your INSERT or SELECT queries to read from or write to data streams encoded with application/x-www-form-urlencoded. For example, specify FORMAT Form in your query to enable this functionality.
