The twitch ui uses only initialsExtra to save the initials state. This caused problems when using an URL with only one group in the initials extra field. The _parseExtraS function does not support extraS to be a string. However this can happen if the initials_extra in the URL comes with only one group, and the _unpackQuery function returns the initials_extra as string instead of an array. This caused errors in the parsing, where instead of returning a correct initialsExtra object, it returned an object parsed by each letter.

_queryToSpec, similar to the tuples approach.
