fix($http): fix double-quoted date issue when encoding params

This commit special cases date handling rather than calling toJSON as we always need a string representation of the object. $http was wrapping dates in double quotes leading to query strings like this: ?date=%222014-07-07T23:00:00.000Z%22 Closes #8150 Closes #6128 Closes #8154
