Fix issue #729 by ensuring UTF8 encoding isn't lost before going on the wire.
Renders issue #662 moot as Content-Length is used instead of chunked encoding.
Anything the reviewer should know when reviewing this PR?
Work in progress! The is experimental code. It does not appear to have broken anything, though occasionally adding alarm instances fails for unknown reasons with the device reporting invalid xml. A silly level log message has been added to try to catch this case.
Other SendXXX functions in APFProcessor could possibly benefit from building the buffer in place as was required in SendChannelData.
Added "SendPendingData" to replace essentially identical code that appeared in three places.
The fix for decoding UTF8 from the device is very inefficient.
