    Make objects serialize_args() handle datetimes in positional args

    Remotable methods in a new TaskLog object need to serialize datatimes
    passed as positional args. Right now the serialize_args() decorator only
    look at kwargs.

    In addition, serialization of datetimes need to use timeutils.strtime()
    to match the deserialization code in the db api. Also makes this change
    for serialization of kwargs to partially solve a bug with how this
    decorator is used in the BandwidthUsage object.

    A follow-up patch closes the bug by adding conversion back to datetimes
    using existing db api helper method convert_objects_related_datetimes(),
    which in turn makes use of timeutils.parse_strtime().
