Created a generic RESTClient component, which simplifies querying for resources from REST based web-services.
Currently it supports a barebones scheme for specifying the path of the resource and querying asynchroneously. POST method is still wacky and a good solid scheme for handling timeout still remain.

12 /// Implementation of a generic REST client
13 /// </summary>
14 /// <remarks>
15 /// This class is a generic implementation of a REST (Representational State Transfer) web service. This
16 /// class is designed to execute both synchroneously and asynchroneously.
17 ///
18 /// Internally the implementation works as a two stage asynchroneous web-client.
19 /// When the request is initiated, RestClient will query asynchroneously for for a web-response,
20 /// sleeping until the initial response is returned by the server. Once the initial response is retrieved
21 /// the second stage of asynchroneous requests will be triggered, in an attempt to read of the response
22 /// object into a memorystream as a sequence of asynchroneous reads.
23 ///
24 /// The asynchronisity of RestClient is designed to move as much processing into the back-ground, allowing
25 /// other threads to execute, while it waits for a response from the web-service. RestClient it self, can be
26 /// invoked by the caller in either synchroneous mode or asynchroneous mode.
