[EventCalendar] ec3_get_events() not translating ampersands into character entities

I think this blog uses a type of content importer or otherwise. It's 
actually easy to bring non-UTF-8 characters in via feeds or bad cut/paste 
techniques from web pages or word processing documents. I get them 
frequently if I'm not careful from non UTF-8 feeds.

I just tested an event out on my blog (WP 2.2.3 and EC 3.1.1. RC2) with an 
ampersand and single quote in the title. It failed validation without 
wrapping it in htmlentities ($entry->post_title,ENT_QUOTES); When I wrapped 
it, the page validated OK (XHTML 1.0 Strict in UTF-8).

Everything in WordPress is supposed to be in UTF-8.
