For C# apps built in .NET, sdk treats UTF-16 strings as UTF-8

[LittleEndu]

Describe the bug When using gamesdk in C# with .NET instead of Unity, all UTF-16 encoded strings are treated as UTF-8 encoded. UTF-16 is the only encoding .NET provides for strings.

Steps to reproduce

1. Make a .NET application (I made a .NET Core console app)
2. Write code that utilizes an activity
3. Special characters come out as ???

Example code: https://gist.github.com/LittleEndu/91771407c51fdbd9bffcd2d891bd4ee9

Expected behavior All characters print out correctly (as äõüöあえいおう★☆⚝✪ on the screenshot)

Screenshots

Implementation specifics

• Language: C#
• No engine, .NET Core 3.1 framework was used instead.

Additional context I reported it in sdk server 5 months ago, Mason back then confirmed that this doesn't happen in Unity.

The solution would most likely be to use the UTF8Encoding class before sending the string.
