class cppcms::http::request has a member raw_post_data() that returns
std::pair<void *,size_t>;

So you can write:

  std::pair<void *,size_t> data = request().raw_post_data();
  std::string postdata(reinterpret_cast<char *>(data.first),data.second);

Please note: this would not when content-type is "multipart/form-data"
i.e. file upload, files data can be accessed via file interface and 
http::request::post() (files upload is not-implemented yet).

Rationale: files maybe too big to put into process memory.
