Timothy Flynn 0ae2cef8b4 LibIPC: Move most of DeprecatedString's encoder to StringView's encoder ...

This was a footgun waiting to happen. The StringView encoder is only
used internally within IPC::Encoder to encode DeprecatedString. It does
not encode its null state nor its length. If someone were to innocently
use the StringView encoder as it is, and then decode a DeprecatedString
on the remote end, the decoding would be corrupt.

This changes the StringView encoder to do the work the DeprecatedString
encoder is currently doing, and the latter now just forwards to it.
