There are many benefits to making the ast_channel an opaque handle, from
increasing maintainability to presenting ways to kill masquerades. This patch
kicks things off by taking things a field at a time, renaming the field to
'__do_not_use_${fieldname}' and then writing setters/getters and converting the
existing code to using them. When all fields are done, we can move ast_channel
to a C file from channel.h and lop off the '__do_not_use_'.
This patch sets up main/channel_interal_api.c to be the only file that actually
accesses the ast_channel's fields directly. The intent would be for any API
functions in channel.c to use the accessor functions. No more monkeying around
with channel internals. We should use our own APIs.
The interesting changes in this patch are the addition of
channel_internal_api.c, the moving of the AST_DATA stuff from channel.c to
channel_internal_api.c (note: the AST_DATA stuff will have to be reworked to
use accessor functions when ast_channel is really opaque), and some re-working
of the way channel iterators/callbacks are handled so as to avoid creating fake
ast_channels on the stack to pass in matching data by directly accessing fields
(since "name" is a stringfield and the fake channel doesn't init the
stringfields, you can't use the ast_channel_name_set() function). I went with
ast_channel_name(chan) for a getter, and ast_channel_name_set(chan, name) for a
setter.
The majority of the grunt-work for this change was done by writing a semantic
patch using Coccinelle ( http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ ).

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 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.

allow tonezone to live in a different place than DAHDI/Zaptel, since dahdi-tools and dahdi-linux are now separate packages and can be installed in different places
don't include tonezone.h in dahdi_compat.h, because only a couple of modules need it
get app_rpt building again after the DAHDI changes
