Matthew Jordan 29f66b0429 ARI/PJSIP: Add the ability to redirect (transfer) a channel in a Stasis app
This patch adds a new feature to ARI to redirect a channel to another server,
and fixes a few bugs in PJSIP's handling of the Transfer dialplan
application/ARI redirect capability.

*New Feature*
A new operation has been added to the ARI channels resource, redirect. With
this, a channel in a Stasis application can be redirected to another endpoint
of the same underlying channel technology.

*Bug fixes*
In the process of writing this new feature, two bugs were fixed in the PJSIP
stack:
(1) The existing .transfer channel callback had the limitation that it could
    only transfer channels to a SIP URI, i.e., you had to pass
    'PJSIP/sip:foo@my_provider.com' to the dialplan application. While this is
    still supported, it is somewhat unintuitive - particularly in a world full
    of endpoints. As such, we now also support specifying the PJSIP endpoint to
    transfer to.
(2) res_pjsip_multihomed was, unfortunately, trying to 'help' a 302 redirect by
    updating its Contact header. Alas, that resulted in the forwarding
    destination set by the dialplan application/ARI resource/whatever being
    rewritten with very incorrect information. Hence, we now don't bother
    updating an outgoing response if it is a 302. Since this took a looong time
    to find, some additional debug statements have been added to those modules
    that update the Contact headers.

This directory contains the specification for the Asterisk RESTful
API. The API is documented using Swagger[1]. This is used to not only
generate executable documentation pages for the API, but also to
generate a lot of the boilerplate necessary for implementing the API
with Asterisk's HTTP server.
