  Note, that this code does not know the content length before it starts writing the output to
  the client, since it's being streamed.  So it doesn't set the content length explicitly, like it used to.

  My understanding of Tomcat's behavior is that if the content is small enough to fit in some tomcat output 
  buffer size , it will buffer it and then send it all with a content length header. If it is larger than that
  then Tomcat sends it in HTTP chunked encoding. I still have to verify this with a very large file.

    Summary: put XML parser back into server data proxy pipeline, to do
    charset transcoding

    New Features:

    Bugs Fixed: LPP-4924

    Technical Reviewer: max
    QA Reviewer: pablo
    Doc Reviewer: 

    Details:

    The server data proxy now uses the XMLPULL parser to parse
    the data from the backend, in order to use Java to force a translation
    into UTF-8
    coding if needed.

    This change also uses a worker Thread to read from the backend, while 
    simultaneously
    pipelining the data back throug the XML PULL parser to the client.
    This should improve
    response time and also removes a potential memory overflow and DOS
    attack on the server.

    Tests:

    test/lfc/data/alldata.lzx
    amazon
    calendar
