Fix UVMeter due to changed URL and BOM
The URL which exports the real time UV data has changed to an HTTPS address. Since the HTTP package does not support HTTPS URLs, use http-conduit to retrieve the XML document. Unfortunately, the XML documents XML declaration precedes a byte order mark which the previous XML parser was unable to handle. We're simply ignoring the BOM in order to get to the UV values.
