You can currently capture backtraces of memory allocations but they
only get displayed when you stop asterisk and the atexit hooks
are enabled. Now, if memory backtrace is on and you issue a
"memory show allocations" CLI command for a specific file, then
a backtrace will show for each allocation that occurred after
you turned "memory backtrace on". The backtrace display is shown
only when a specific file's allocations are displayed to prevent
a massive CLI dump of every file's allocations.

We've been seeing crashes in libbfd when we attempt to generate
a stack trace from multiple threads. It turns out that libbfd
is NOT thread-safe. It can cache the bfd structure and give it to
multiple threads without protecting itself. To get around this,
we've added a global mutex around the bfd functions and also have
refactored the use of those functions to be more efficient and
to provide more information about inlined functions.
Also added a few more tests to test_pbx.c. One just calls
ast_assert() and the other calls ast_log_backtrace(). Neither are
run by default.
WARNING: This change necessitated changing the return value of
ast_bt_get_symbols() from an array of strings to a VECTOR of
strings. However, the use of this function outside Asterisk is not
likely.

Changing any Menuselect option in the `Compiler Flags` section causes a
full rebuild of the Asterisk source tree. Every enabled option causes
a #define to be added to buildopts.h, thus breaking ccache caching for
every source file that includes "asterisk.h". In most cases each option
only applies to one or two files. Now we only define those options for
the specific sources which use them, this causes much better cache
matching when working with multiple builds. For example testing code
with an without MALLOC_DEBUG will now use just over half the ccache
size, only main/astmm.o will have two builds cached instead of every
file.
Reorder main/Makefile so _ASTCFLAGS set on specific object files are all
together, sorted by filename. Stop adding -DMALLOC_DEBUG to CFLAGS of
bundled pjproject, this define is no longer used by any header so only
serves to break cache.
The only code change is a slight adjustment to how main/astmm.c is
initialized. Initialization functions always exist so main/asterisk.c
can call them unconditionally. Additionally rename the astmm
initialization functions so they are not exported.

This replaces AST_INLINE_API allocators in utils.h with real functions
implemented in astmm.c. Associated macro's are also moved from utils.h
to astmm.h.
Remove menuselect conflicts between MALLOC_DEBUG and DEBUG_CHAOS as they
can now be combined.
This has multiple benefits:
* Simplifies asterisk/utils.h by removing inline functions and use of
the logger.
* Removal of these inline functions decreases size of Asterisk and
module binaries by 1% or more.
* Puts memory management functions together with and without
MALLOC_DEBUG enabled, simplifying management of the code.
* Enables DEBUG_CHAOS for ASTMM_REDIRECT and bundled pjproject.

There are 3 ways that calls directly to standard allocator functions can
be dealt with:
1. Block their use, cause them to generate an error. This is the default.
2. Replace them with the Asterisk equivalent function calls.
3. Leave them alone.
This change allows one of these 3 options to be selected by any source.
The source just needs to define ASTMM_LIBC to ASTMM_BLOCK, ASTMM_REDIRECT,
or ASTMM_IGNORE to use option 1, 2 or 3 respectively. Normally ASTMM_BLOCK
is the correct option, so it is default when ASTMM_LIBC is not defined.
In some cases when building 3rd party code it is desirable to have it use
Asterisk functions, without changing the whole source - ASTMM_REDIRECT
accomplishes this. When using 3rd party libraries sometimes a static
inline function will make use of malloc or free. In these cases it may
be unsafe to replace the allocator in the header, as it's possible the
memory could be freed by the library using standard allocators. For
those cases ASTMM_IGNORE is needed.

Git does not support the ability to replace a token with a version
string during check-in. While it does have support for replacing a
token on clone, this is somewhat sub-optimal: the token is replaced
with the object hash, which is not particularly easy for human
consumption. What's more, in practice, the source file version was often
not terribly useful. Generally, when triaging bugs, the overall version
of Asterisk is far more useful than an individual SVN version of a file. As a
result, this patch removes Asterisk's support for showing source file
versions.
Specifically, it does the following:
* Rename ASTERISK_FILE_VERSION macro to ASTERISK_REGISTER_FILE, and
remove passing the version in with the macro. Other facilities
than 'core show file version' make use of the file names, such as
setting a debug level only on a specific file. As such, the act of
registering source files with the Asterisk core still has use. The
macro rename now reflects the new macro purpose.
* main/asterisk:
- Refactor the file_version structure to reflect that it no longer
tracks a version field.
- Remove the "core show file version" CLI command. Without the file
version, it is no longer useful.
- Remove the ast_file_version_find function. The file version is no
longer tracked.
- Rename ast_register_file_version/ast_unregister_file_version to
ast_register_file/ast_unregister_file, respectively.
* main/manager: Remove value from the Version key of the ModuleCheck
Action. The actual key itself has not been removed, as doing so would
absolutely constitute a backwards incompatible change. However, since
the file version is no longer tracked, there is no need to attempt to
include it in the Version key.
* UPGRADE: Add notes for:
- Modification to the ModuleCheck AMI Action
- Removal of the "core show file version" CLI command

Since 'core stop now' and 'core restart now' do not stop modules,
it is unsafe for most of the core to run cleanups. Originally all
cleanups used ast_register_atexit, and were only changed when it
was shown to be unsafe. ast_register_atexit is now used only when
absolutely required to prevent corruption and close child processes.
Exceptions that need to use ast_register_atexit:
* CDR: Flush records.
* res_musiconhold: Kill external applications.
* AstDB: Close the DB.
* canary_exit: Kill canary process.

This patch allows astmm to access the backtrace generation code in Asterisk.
When memory is allocated, a backtrace is created and stored with the memory
region that tracks the allocation. If a memory corruption is detected, the
backtrace is printed to the astmm log. The backtrace will make use of the
BETTER_BACKTRACES build option if available.
As a result, this patch moves the backtrace generation code into its own file
and uses the non-wrapped versions of the C library memory allocation routines.
This allows the memory allocation code to safely use the backtrace generation
routines without infinitely recursing.

memory atexit list on

memory atexit summary byline
memory atexit summary byfunc
memory atexit summary byfile
memory atexit summary off
* Made check all remaining allocated region blocks atexit for fence
violations.
* Increased the allocated region hash table size by about three times. It
still isn't large enough considering the number of malloced blocks
Asterisk uses.
* Made CLI "memory show allocations anomalies" use
regions_check_all_fences().

* Makes malloc() behave like calloc(). It will return a memory block
filled with 0x55. A nonzero value.
* Makes free() fill the released memory block and boundary fence's with
0xdeaddead. Any pointer use after free is going to have a pointer
pointing to 0xdeaddead. The 0xdeaddead pointer is usually an invalid
memory address so a crash is expected.

that the memory has not been altered from 0xdeaddead.

Add support-level indications to many more source files.
Since we now have tools that scan through the source tree looking for files
with specific support levels, we need to ensure that every file that is
a component of a 'core' or 'extended' module (or the main Asterisk binary)
is explicitly marked with its support level. This patch adds support-level
indications to many more source files in tree, but avoids adding them to
third-party libraries that are included in the tree and to source files
that don't end up involved in Asterisk itself.

improve header inclusion process in a few small ways:
- it is no longer necessary to forcibly include asterisk/autoconfig.h; every module already includes asterisk.h as its first header (even before system headers), which serves the same purpose
- astmm.h is now included by asterisk.h when needed, instead of being forced by the Makefile; this means external modules will build properly against installed headers with MALLOC_DEBUG enabled
- simplify the usage of some of these headers in the AEL-related stuff in the utils directory

build times - tested, there is no measureable difference before and
after this commit.
In this change:
use asterisk/compat.h to include a small set of system headers:
inttypes.h, unistd.h, stddef.h, stddint.h, sys/types.h, stdarg.h,
stdlib.h, alloca.h, stdio.h
Where available, the inclusion is conditional on HAVE_FOO_H as determined
by autoconf.
Normally, source files should not include any of the above system headers,
and instead use either "asterisk.h" or "asterisk/compat.h" which does it
better.
For the time being I have left alone second-level directories
(main/db1-ast, etc.).

Add some improvements to lock debugging. These changes take effect
with DEBUG_THREADS enabled and provide the following:
* This will keep track of which locks are held by which thread as well as
which lock a thread is waiting for in a thread-local data structure. A
reference to this structure is available on the stack in the dummy_start()
function, which is the common entry point for all threads. This information
can be easily retrieved using gdb if you switch to the dummy_start() stack
frame of any thread and print the contents of the lock_info variable.
* All of the thread-local structures for keeping track of this lock information
are also stored in a list so that the information can be dumped to the CLI
using the "core show locks" CLI command. This introduces a little bit of a
performance hit as it requires additional underlying locking operations
inside of every lock/unlock on an ast_mutex. However, the benefits of
having this information available at the CLI is huge, especially considering
this is only done in DEBUG_THREADS mode. It means that in most cases where
we debug deadlocks, we no longer have to request access to the machine to
analyze the contents of ast_mutex_t structures. We can now just ask them
to get the output of "core show locks", which gives us all of the information
we needed in most cases.
I also had to make some additional changes to astmm.c to make this work when
both MALLOC_DEBUG and DEBUG_THREADS are enabled. I disabled tracking of one
of the locks in astmm.c because it gets used inside the replacement memory
allocation routines, and the lock tracking code allocates memory. This caused
infinite recursion.
