Summary:                    [patch] Add a jabber text receiver application, and
make Asterisk a Gtalk to phone gateway
Description: 
Hi Matthew and other people working on jabber,

I'd like to submit two features to your acceptance, that make Asterisk a
jabber gateway to dial extensions from a jabber user client. Here is the
implemented behaviour (tested with GoogleTalk clients and a SIP gateway) :
- make a Gtalk call to Asterisk (needs a GoogleTalk account)
- Asterisk answers and plays a file
- Asterisk sends a text message asking the user for a number to dial
- Asterisk dials the number and makes the remote GoogleTalk client talk
with the corresponding POTS phone (through a SIP gateway in our case)

Two applications are used to achieve this :
- JabberReceive Dial plan application
  * waits for incoming jabber text messages, and stores received text in a
channel variable

JabberReceive relies on aji_handle_message to find a running Gtalk channel
that matches with the received jid (uid part), and pass a text frame that
contains the body of the jabber message to the channel on success. On the
channel side, the received text frame is stored in a channel variable
(defined in the dialplan).
JabberReceive needs to find a caller ID, so that this feature depends on
bug http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8536 (new patch will be provided to allow
SIP extensions dialing).

- JabberAuthorize Dial plan application
  * sends a text message to the jid that started a Gtalk channel with
Asterisk in order to welcome and authorize a user to dial extensions
through Asterisk

JabberAuthorize relies on Asterisk's jabber client's buddy list to achieve
access control. In the future, we might prompt the user either through a
chat or form window (if the remote jabber client supports it) to provide
credentials for example.

Notes :
- you can also have Asterisk registered as a component rather than a user,
in this case, you'll need to fix Asterisk as per bug
http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=8409.
- also tested this with a jingle enabled client (jabbin), this needs some
hacking though.

JabberReceive is attached in trunk-aji_recv-1.diff (as it is closed to
JabberSend, I included it in res_jabber).
JabberAuthorize is attached in app_jabberauthorize.c

Enjoy the ending year celebration, and merry christmas!
