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

struct timeval fields, both reading and printing them.
It is a lost battle to handle the different ways struct timeval
is handled on the various platforms and compilers, so try
to be pragmatic and go through int/long which are universally
supported.

If a thread holds no locks, do not print any information on the thread when issuing
a core show locks command. This will help to de-clutter output somewhat.
Russell said it would be fine to place this improvement in the 1.4 branch, so that's
why it's going here too.

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.

Fix a bug in the lock tracking code that was discovered by mmichelson. The issue
is that if the lock history array was full, then the functions to mark a lock as
acquired or not would adjust the stats for whatever lock is at the end of the array,
which may not be itself. So, do a sanity check to make sure that we're updating
lock info for the proper lock.
(This explains the bizarre stats on lock #63 in BE-396, thanks Mark!)

Improve the lock tracking code a bit so that a bunch of old locks that threads
failed to lock don't sit around in the history. When a lock is first locked,
this checks to see if the last lock in the list was one that was failed to be
locked. If it is, then that was a lock that we're no longer sitting in a trylock
loop trying to lock, so just remove it.

Do not try to access information about a lock when printing out a trylock attempt. It is possible for the lock that it references to no longer be valid. This would have caused segfaults or deadlocks.

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.).

Revert a change that I made for issue #10979 which, as has been pointed out to
me in issue #11018, doesn't really make sense. There is no reason to have
the base64 decode function force a '\0' terminated buffer, when the result is
almost always binary, anyway. In fact, this caused some breakage, as some code
in res_crypto passed in a buffer exactly the right size to get its binary
result, which got stomped on by this patch.

The loop in the handler for the "core show locks" could potentially block for
some amount of time. Be a little bit more careful and prepare all of the
output in an intermediary buffer while holding a global resource. Then, after
releasing it, send the output to ast_cli().

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.
