• Fixed issue with Http Client streaming buffer

• Fixed issue with SHDR Ping/Pong Heartbeat referenced in Issue #70
• Added IgnoreHeartbeatOnChange configuration parameter for SHDR Adapters to toggle whether PING data is sent even if data has been received.

Fixed issue with MTConnectHttpClientStream that caused an exception to be thrown when using multiple MTConnectClient connections. Moved the _httpClient variable from being static to be a class member and now requires the MTConnectHttpClientStream class to be disposed.

Fixed issue with HTTP client where some agents don't support a "?from=0" in a sample stream request.

Updated HttpAdapter Agent Module to use the configuration ID of 'http-adapter' instead of 'http-client'

• Fixes issue with MTConnectAgentApplication.Run() copying the default config file if the configPath argument is passed through the command line

Update to fix Issue #61
