Bug description:  Parameters in SoapServer are decoded twice

Description:
------------
Strings sent as SOAP message parameters change when transported to server
functions. This may result in a string cut or even in an encoding error
"Encoding: Violation of encoding rules in client.php:"

Reproduce code:
---------------
[client]
<?php
$client = new SoapClient('a.wsdl');
$strA = 'test &amp; test';
$strB = 'test & test';
$res = $client->Test(array('strA'=>$strA, 'strB'=>$strB));
?>

[server]
<?php
function Test($param) {
        file_put_contents('test.txt', $param->strA."\n".$param->strB );
        return 1;
}
$server = new SoapServer('a.wsdl');
$server->addFunction('Test');
$server->handle();
?>

[a.wsdl]

                                <s:attribute use="required" name="strB"

                        <output message="s0:TestSoapOut"/>
                </operation>
        </portType>
        <binding name="TestSoap" type="s0:TestSoap">

                <operation name="Test">
                        <soap:operation soapAction="http:/Test/Test" 
style="document"/>
                        <input>
                                <soap:body use="literal"/>
                        </input>
                        <output>
                                <soap:body use="literal"/>
                        </output>
                </operation>
        </binding>
        <service name="Test">
                <port name="TestSoapPort" binding="s0:TestSoap">
                        <soap:address location="http://localhost/server.php"/>
                </port>
        </service>
</definitions>


Expected result:
----------------
File text.txt shall contain exactly the same values as calling
parameters:

test &amp; test
test & test



Actual result:
--------------
The parameters are improperly decoded twice:

test & test
test 

(note: the second line is cut at "&")

Try to change a line in a client to:
$strA = 'test &xxx; test';

then you'll get an error "Encoding: Violation of encoding rules in
client.php"
