    """Parse a query like original `parse_qs` from `urlparse`, `urllib.parse`, but query given as a bytes argument.

    Arguments:

    qs: percent-encoded query string to be parsed

    keep_blank_values: flag indicating whether blank values in
        percent-encoded queries should be treated as blank byte strings.
        A true value indicates that blanks should be retained as
        blank byte strings. The default false value indicates that
        blank values are to be ignored and treated as if they were
        not included.

    strict_parsing: flag indicating what to do with parsing errors.
        If false (the default), errors are silently ignored.
        If true, errors raise a ValueError exception.

    max_num_fields: int. If set, then throws a ValueError if there
        are more than n fields read by parse_qsl_binary().

    separator: bytes. The symbol to use for separating the query arguments.
        Defaults to &.

    Returns a dictionary.
