feat: add --dry-run flag to toggle-on, toggle-off, and archive commands

The API already supports dryRun as a query parameter on PATCH
/api/v2/flags. The auto-generated `flags update` command exposes it,
but the hand-rolled toggle and archive commands passed nil for query
params. This wires --dry-run through to MakeRequest on all three.

Also adds a Query field to MockClient so tests can verify query params.

Made-with: Cursor
