[Python.NET] Passing .NET strings containing " to Python.NET

[Torleif Ringsaker]

Hi,

Thanks Brian, it turns out there are two different XML encoders/decoders 
doing their stuff, one in C++/MFC and the other in C#/DotNet. Decoding the 
XML on the DotNet side has been identified as the bug's nest.

PythonDotNet is doing just fine on this.
