Asterisk would crash on startup if MALLOC_DEBUG were set in menuselect. This is because
the manager action UpdateConfig had to resize its string field allocation to set the
description. When the resize occurred, ast_copy_string would crash because we were
attempting to copy a string from a NULL pointer. Setting the strings initially makes
the code much less crashy.

It is possible for a stringfield manager structure (and pool) structure to be allocated
as part of a larger structure allocation (using ast_calloc_with_strinfields()); when
this is done, the stringfield pool cannot be separately freed, but users of the tructure
may not be aware (and shouldn't have to be aware) of whether the pool was embedded.
This patch modifies the behavior so that they can always call ast_string_field_free_memory()
and the function will do the right thing for both embedded and non-embedded situations.

This patch adds 'const' tags to a number of Asterisk APIs where they are appropriate (where the API already demanded that the function argument not be modified, but the compiler was not informed of that fact). The list includes:
- CLI command handlers
- CLI command handler arguments
- AGI command handlers
- AGI command handler arguments
- Dialplan application handler arguments
- Speech engine API function arguments
In addition, various file-scope and function-scope constant arrays got 'const' and/or 'static' qualifiers where they were missing.

This patch provides a number of optimizations to the stringfields API, focused around saving (not wasting) memory whenever possible. Thanks to Mark Michelson for inspiring this work and coming up with the first two optimizations that are represented here:
Changes:
- Cleanup of some code, fix incorrect doxygen comments
- When a field is emptied or replaced with a new allocation, decrease the amount of 'active' space in the pool it was held in; if that pool reaches zero active space, and is not the current pool, then free it as it is no longer in use
- When allocating a pool, try to allocate a size that will fit in a 'standard' malloc() allocation without wasting space
- When allocating space for a field, store the amount of space in the two bytes immediately preceding the field; this eliminates the need to call strlen() on the field when overwriting it, and more importantly it 'remembers' the amount of space the field has available, even if a shorter string has been stored in it since it was allocated
- Don't automatically double the size of each successive pool allocated; it's wasteful

Fix cases where the internal poll() was not being used when it needed to be.
We have seen a number of problems caused by poll() not working properly on
Mac OSX. If you search around, you'll find a number of references to using
select() instead of poll() to work around these issues. In Asterisk, we've
had poll.c which implements poll() using select() internally. However, we
were still getting reports of problems.
vadim investigated a bit and realized that at least on his system, even
though we were compiling in poll.o, the system poll() was still being used.
So, the primary purpose of this patch is to ensure that we're using the
internal poll() when we want it to be used.
The changes are:
1) Remove logic for when internal poll should be used from the Makefile.
Instead, put it in the configure script. The logic in the configure
script is the same as it was in the Makefile. Ideally, we would have
a functionality test for the problem, but that's not actually possible,
since we would have to be able to run an application on the _target_
system to test poll() behavior.
2) Always include poll.o in the build, but it will be empty if AST_POLL_COMPAT
is not defined.
3) Change uses of poll() throughout the source tree to ast_poll(). I feel
that it is good practice to give the API call a new name when we are
changing its behavior and not using the system version directly in all cases.
So, normally, ast_poll() is just redefined to poll(). On systems where
AST_POLL_COMPAT is defined, ast_poll() is redefined to ast_internal_poll().
4) Change poll() in main/poll.c to be ast_internal_poll().
It's worth noting that any code that still uses poll() directly will work fine
(if they worked fine before). So, for example, out of tree modules that are
using poll() will not stop working or anything. However, for modules to work
properly on Mac OSX, ast_poll() needs to be used.

This patch introduces a function to do careful writes on a file stream which

address the issue that has been reported. However, there are probably a few
other places where this could be used.

in 1.6.1 (as compared to 1.6.0 and versions of 1.4), this change also
deprecates the use of Asterisk with FreeBSD 4, given the central use of va_copy
in core functions. va_copy() is C99, anyway, and we already require C99 for
other purposes, so this isn't really a big change anyway. This change also
simplifies some of the core ast_str_* functions.

If a deadlock is detected, then the typical lock information will be
printed along with a backtrace of the stack for the offending threads.
Use of this requires compiling with DETECT_DEADLOCKS and having glibc
installed.
Furthermore, issuing the "core show locks" CLI command will print the
normal lock information as well as a backtraces for each lock. This
requires that DEBUG_THREADS is enabled and that glibc is installed.
All the backtrace features may be disabled by running the configure
script with --without-execinfo as an argument

I gathered the code that filled the string, and put it in a different func which
I cryptically call "append_lock_information()".
Now, both log_show_lock(), and handle_show_locks() both call this code to do
the work. Tested, seems to work fine.
Also, log_show_lock was modified to use the ast_str stuff, along with checking
for successful ast_str creation, and freeing the ast_str obj when finished.
A break was inserted to terminate the search for the lock; we should never
see it twice.
An example usage in chan_sip.c was created as a comment, for instructional
purposes.

Fix a logic flaw in the code that stores lock info which is displayed
via the "core show locks" command. The idea behind this section of code was
to remove the previous lock from the list if it was a trylock that had failed.
Unfortunately, instead of checking the status of the previous lock, we were referencing
the index immediately following the previous lock in the lock_info->locks array.
The result of this problem, under the right circumstances, was that the lock which
we currently in the process of attempting to acquire could "overwrite" the previous lock
which was acquired. While this does not in any way affect typical operation, it *could*
lead to misleading "core show locks" output.
