This patch serves two purposes:
(1) It fixes some bugs with endpoint subscriptions not reporting all of the
channel events
(2) It serves as the preliminary work needed for ASTERISK-23692, which allows
for sending/receiving arbitrary out of call text messages through ARI in a
technology agnostic fashion.
The messaging functionality described on ASTERISK-23692 requires two things:
(1) The ability to send/receive messages associated with an endpoint. This is
relatively straight forwards with the endpoint core in Asterisk now.
(2) The ability to send/receive messages associated with a technology and an
arbitrary technology defined URI. This is less straight forward, as
endpoints are formed from a tech + resource pair. We don't have a
mechanism to note that a technology that *may* have endpoints exists.
This patch provides such a mechanism, and fixes a few bugs along the way.
The first major bug this patch fixes is the forwarding of channel messages
to their respective endpoints. Prior to this patch, there were two problems:
(1) Channel caching messages weren't forwarded. Thus, the endpoints missed
most of the interesting bits (such as channel creation, destruction, state
changes, etc.)
(2) Channels weren't associated with their endpoint until after creation.
This resulted in endpoints missing the channel creation message, which
limited the usefulness of the subscription in the first place (a major use
case being 'tell me when this endpoint has a channel'). Unfortunately,
this meant another parameter to ast_channel_alloc. Since not all channel
technologies support an ast_endpoint, this patch makes such a call
optional and opts for a new function, ast_channel_alloc_with_endpoint.
When endpoints are created, they will implicitly create a technology endpoint
for their technology (if one does not already exist). A technology endpoint is
special in that it has no state, cannot have channels created for it, cannot
be created explicitly, and cannot be destroyed except on shutdown. It does,
however, have all messages from other endpoints in its technology forwarded to
it.
Combined with the bug fixes, we now have Stasis messages being properly
forwarded. Consider the following scenario: two PJSIP endpoints (foo and bar),
where bar has a single channel associated with it and foo has two channels
associated with it. The messages would be forwarded as follows:
channel PJSIP/foo-1 --
\
--> endpoint PJSIP/foo --
/ \
channel PJSIP/foo-2 -- \
---- > endpoint PJSIP
/
channel PJSIP/bar-1 -----> endpoint PJSIP/bar --
ARI, through the applications resource, can:
- subscribe to endpoint:PJSIP/foo and get notifications for channels
PJSIP/foo-1,PJSIP/foo-2 and endpoint PJSIP/foo
- subscribe to endpoint:PJSIP/bar and get notifications for channels
PJSIP/bar-1 and endpoint PJSIP/bar
- subscribe to endpoint:PJSIP and get notifications for channels
PJSIP/foo-1,PJSIP/foo-2,PJSIP/bar-1 and endpoints PJSIP/foo,PJSIP/bar
Note that since endpoint PJSIP never changes, it never has events itself. It
merely provides an aggregation point for all other endpoints in its technology
(which in turn aggregate all channel messages associated with that endpoint).
This patch also adds endpoints to res_xmpp and chan_motif, because the actual
messaging work will need it (messaging without XMPP is just sad).

This adds back in support for specifying channel variables during an
originate without compromising the ability to specify query parameters
in the JSON body. This was accomplished by generating the body-parsing
code in a separate function instead of being integrated with the URI
query parameter parsing code such that it could be called by paths with
body parameters. This is transparent to the user of the API and
prevents manual duplication of code or data structures.

The documentation for ARI already specifies that the device state resource when
used for subscribing for events is "deviceState", not "device_state". The code,
however, used "device_state"; although this was inconsistent as well in doxygen
comments in resource_applications.
Because the actual resource being subscribed to is /deviceStates/{device}/, it
makes sense for the resource type specifier to be deviceState.
Note that the key value in the events is still "device_state".

Created a data model and implemented functionality for an ARI device state
resource. The following operations have been added that allow a user to
manipulate an ARI controlled device:
Create/Change the state of an ARI controlled device
PUT /deviceStates/{deviceName}&{deviceState}
Retrieve all ARI controlled devices
GET /deviceStates
Retrieve the current state of a device
GET /deviceStates/{deviceName}
Destroy a device-state controlled by ARI
DELETE /deviceStates/{deviceName}
The ARI controlled device must begin with 'Stasis:'. An example controlled
device name would be Stasis:Example. A 'DeviceStateChanged' event has also
been added so that an application can subscribe and receive device change
events. Any device state, ARI controlled or not, can be subscribed to.
While adding the event, the underlying subscription control mechanism was
refactored so that all current and future resource subscriptions would be
the same. Each event resource must now register itself in order to be able
to properly handle [un]subscribes.

While working on building client libraries from the Swagger API, I
noticed a problem with the nicknames.
channel.deleteChannel()
channel.answerChannel()
channel.muteChannel()
Etc. We put the object name in the nickname (since we were generating C
code), but it makes OO generators redundant.
This patch makes the nicknames more OO friendly. This resulted in a lot
of name changing within the res_ari_*.so modules, but not much else.
There were a couple of other fixed I made in the process.
* When reversible operations (POST /hold, POST /unhold) were made more
RESTful (POST /hold, DELETE /unhold), the path for the second operation
was left in the API declaration. This worked, but really the two
operations should have been on the same API.
* The POST /unmute operation had still not been REST-ified.

This patch adds an /applications API to ARI, allowing explicit management of
Stasis applications.
* GET /applications - list current applications
* GET /applications/{applicationName} - get details of a specific application
* POST /applications/{applicationName}/subscription - explicitly subscribe to
a channel, bridge or endpoint
* DELETE /applications/{applicationName}/subscription - explicitly unsubscribe
from a channel, bridge or endpoint
Subscriptions work by a reference counting mechanism: if you subscript to an
event source X number of times, you must unsubscribe X number of times to stop
receiveing events for that event source.
