StopMixMonitor only indicates to the MixMonitor thread to stop
writing to the file. It does not guarantee that the recording's
file handle is available to the dialplan immediately after execution.
This results in a race condition. To resolve this, the filestream
pointer is placed in a datastore on the channel. When StopMixMonitor
is called, the datastore is retrieved from the channel and the
filestream is closed immediately before returning to the dialplan.
Documentation indicating the use of StopMixMonitor to free files
has been updated as well.

There are various media paths in Asterisk (codec translators and UDPTL, primarily)
that can generate more than one frame to be generated when the application calling
them expects only a single frame. This patch addresses a number of those cases,
at least the primary ones to solve the known problems. In addition it removes the
broken TRACE_FRAMES support, fixes a number of bugs in various frame-related API
functions, and cleans up various code paths affected by these changes.

Updated the MixMonitor documentation for the 'b' option so that
it is more obvious that you must not optimize awat the Local
channel when using this option.

With these changes, for a module to export symbols into the global namespace, it must have *both* the AST_MODFLAG_GLOBAL_SYMBOLS flag and a linker script that allows the linker to leave the symbols exposed in the module's .so file (see res_odbc.exports for an example).

app_mixmonitor runs its own thread to monitor the channel's activity and write the mixed
audio to a file. Since this thread runs independently of the channel, it is possible that
the mixmonitor thread's channel pointer will point to freed memory when the channel either
is masqueraded or hangs up (technically, both cases are hangups, but we need to handle the
cases slightly differently).
The solution for this is to employ a datastore, which has the nice benefit of allowing us
to hook into channel masquerades and hangups and update our pointer as necessary. If this
looks familiar, this same technique is employed in app_chanspy. app_chanspy is a bit more
involved since it does a lot more operations on the channel that is being spied upon.
app_mixmonitor does have an extra touch that app_chanspy doesn't have, though. Since there
is a thread race between the channel's thread and the mixmonitor thread on a hangup, we em-
ploy a condition-and-boolean combination to ensure that the channel thread finishes with
our structure before the mixmonitor thread attempts to free it. No crashes!

reduce standard thread stack size slightly to allow the pthreads library to allocate the stack+data and not overflow a power-of-2 allocation in the kernel and waste memory/address space

There are some situations in Asterisk where ast_frame and/or iax_frame
structures are rapidly allocatted and freed (at least 50 times per second
for one call).
This code significantly improves the performance of ast_frame_header_new(),
ast_frdup(), ast_frfree(), iax_frame_new(), and iax_frame_free() by keeping
a thread-local cache of these structures and using frames from the cache
whenever possible instead of calling malloc/free every time.
This commit also converts the ast_frame and iax_frame structures to use the
linked list macros.

- restructured build tree and makefiles to eliminate recursion problems
- support for embedded modules
- support for static builds
- simpler cross-compilation support
- simpler module/loader interface (no exported symbols)

As partly documented in loader.c and include/asterisk/module.h,
modules are now expected to return all of their methods and flags
into a structure 'mod_data', and are normally loaded with RTLD_NOW
| RTLD_LOCAL, so symbols are resolved immediately and conflicts
should be less likely. Only in a small number of cases (res_*,
typically) modules are loaded RTLD_GLOBAL, so they can export
symbols.
The core of the change is only the two files loader.c and
include/asterisk/module.h, all the rest is simply adaptation of the
existing modules to the new API, a rather mechanical (but believe
me, time and finger-consuming!) process whose detail you can figure
out by svn diff'ing any single module.
Expect some minor compilation issue after this change, please
report it on mantis http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=6968
so we collect all the feedback in one place.
I am just sorry that this change missed SVN version number 20000!
