Simplify and document scanning protocol

Reported by Paul Jones | May 27th, 2011 @ 09:58 PM

The default scanning protocol currently works over the JSON-RPC (via either HTTP or AMQP). Whilst from a communication point-of-view this is fine, it tends to be very difficult to develop new clients for, and is also non-trivial to understand. The protocol could be much more simply defined in the HTTP case by using more HTTP natural calls, such as GET requests for entities, and query arguments to indicate constraints or necessary aggregations.

As part of this, we should also produce some documentation, at least at the level of the health monitoring guide.
