An admin can configure app_minivm with an externnotify program to be run
when a voicemail is received. The app_minivm application MinivmNotify
uses ast_safe_system() for this purpose which is vulnerable to command
injection since the Caller-ID name and number values given to externnotify
can come from an external untrusted source.
* Add ast_safe_execvp() function. This gives modules the ability to run
external commands with greater safety compared to ast_safe_system().
Specifically when some parameters are filled by untrusted sources the new
function does not allow malicious input to break argument encoding. This
may be of particular concern where CALLERID(name) or CALLERID(num) may be
used as a parameter to a script run by ast_safe_system() which could
potentially allow arbitrary command execution.
* Changed app_minivm.c:run_externnotify() to use the new ast_safe_execvp()
instead of ast_safe_system() to avoid command injection.
* Document code injection potential from untrusted data sources for other
shell commands that are under user control.

ASTERISK_REGISTER_FILE no longer has any purpose so this commit removes
all traces of it.
Previously exported symbols removed:
* __ast_register_file
* __ast_unregister_file
* ast_complete_source_filename
This also removes the mtx_prof static variable that was declared when
MTX_PROFILE was enabled. This variable was only used in lock.c so it
is now initialized in that file only.

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

This patch allows individual dialplan functions to be marked as
'dangerous', to inhibit their execution from external sources.
A 'dangerous' function is one which results in a privilege escalation.
For example, if one were to read the channel variable SHELL(rm -rf /)
Bad Things(TM) could happen; even if the external source has only read
permissions.
Execution from external sources may be enabled by setting
'live_dangerously' to 'yes' in the [options] section of asterisk.conf.
Although doing so is not recommended.
Also, the ABI was changed to something more reasonable, since Asterisk
12 does not yet have a public release.

This commit introduces the first phase of an effort to manage documentation of the
interfaces in Asterisk in an XML format. Currently, a new format is available for
applications and dialplan functions. A good number of conversions to the new format
are also included.
For more information, see the following message to asterisk-dev:

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.).
