Preview via GET breaks URI length limit in Nginx

Problem/Motivation

When using text_format input field types in embedded content plugins, the field content can be large enough to hit URI limits that break preview.

Steps to reproduce

Use a plugin with a text_format input. Add enough text to break the URI limit. See the preview fail.

Proposed resolution

Move the preview system to use HTTP POST instead (there is no caching value in using GET anyway) so plugin data can be sent without breaking the HTTP protocol.
