* Support XML conversion for RESTful sensors Many devices continue to use XML for RESTful APIs. Interfacing with these APIs requires custom integrations or command line fork()/exec() overhead which many of these devices can work with as if they were JSON using xmltojson via this spec: https://www.xml.com/pub/a/2006/05/31/converting-between-xml-and-json.html This change implements converting XML output to JSON via xmltojson so it can work with the existing rest sensor component. As the attributes that usually need to be scraped are deeper in the document support for passing in a template to find the JSON attributes that have been added. JSON APIs that do not have their attributes at the top level can also benefit from this change. * Auto convert xml, change out the template for jsonpath * Address review items and potentially unexpected normalize behavior with jsonpath * Revert "Address review items and potentially unexpected normalize behavior with jsonpath" This reverts commit fe9e179092f2a664e3668e0c832856bf5c78d262. * json_dict[0] turned out to be needed
