Release v1.9.8

• Issue #645: Add ampersand character (&) as xml delimiter
• WixSharp.Extensions class that is implemented in both WixSharp.dll and WixSharp.Msi.dll is refactored to

---

This release bring breaking change to the WixSharp.Msi.dll assembly. This is done in order to avoid ambiguity when using both WixSharp.dll and WixSharp.Msi.dll assemblies at the same time.

While it is a breaking change it is very easy to handle and it requires only an update in the using clause:

using WixSharp.Msi;
// instead of old "using WixSharp;"

Note this code change is only required if you are using extension methods from WixSharp.Msi.dll

This release brings low risk changes only but it is marked on NuGet as a preview release. It is only to allow WixSharp.Msi.dll users a more managed transition to a new namespace. And the package will be promoted in full release in a few weeks.
