How it works today:
media_cache tries to parse out the extension of the media file to be played
from the URI provided to Asterisk while caching the file.
What's expected:
Better will be to have Asterisk get extension from other ways too. One of the
common ways is to get the type of content from the CONTENT-TYPE header in the
HTTP response for fetching the media file using the URI provided.
Steps to Reproduce:
Provide a URL of the form: http://host/media/1234 to Asterisk for media
playback. It fails to play and logs show the following error line:
[Sep 15 15:48:05] WARNING [29148] [C-00000092] file.c:
File http://host/media/1234 does not exist in any format
Scenario this issue is blocking:
In the case where the media files are stored in some cloud object store,
following can block the media being played via Asterisk:
Cloud storage generally needs authenticated access to the storage. The way
to do that is by using signed URIs. With the signed URIs there's no way to
preserve the name of the file.
In most cases Cloud storage returns a key to access the object and preserving
file name is also not a thing there

This removes references that are no longer needed due to automatic
references created by module dependencies.
In addition this removes most calls to ast_module_check as they were
checking modules which are listed as dependencies.

Instead of specifying AST_MODFLAG_LOAD_ORDER with load_pri
AST_MODPRI_DEFAULT just use AST_MODFLAG_DEFAULT.

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.

This patch adds a bucket backend for the core media cache that interfaces to a
remote HTTP server. When a media item is requested in the cache, the cache will
query its bucket backends to see if they can provide the media item. If that
media item has a scheme of HTTP or HTTPS, this backend will be invoked.
The backend provides callbacks for the following:
* create - this will always retrieve the URI specified by the provided
bucket_file, and store it in the file specified by the object.
* retrieve - this will pull the URI specified and store it in a temporary
file. It is then up to the media cache to move/rename this file
if desired.
* delete - destroys the file associated with the bucket_file.
* stale - if the bucket_file has expired, based on received HTTP headers from
the remote server, or if the ETag on the server no longer matches
the ETag stored on the bucket_file, the resource is determined to be
stale.
Note that the backend respects the ETag, Expires, and Cache-Control headers
provided by the HTTP server it is querying.
