Summary:                    New application app_pickupextn.c
Description: 

We attempted to implement call pickup using the cmd
Pickup(extension[@context]) but found it was limited to only being able to
pickup a channel that is in the DIAL state.

This application app_pickupextn.c extends the Asterisk pickup application
to be able to do the following:

- will pickup any ringing CHANNEL (whether it be SIP, IAX, or ZAP).
- will pickup any ringing CHANNEL which can be from a DIAL or QUEUE 

I believe the command Pickup() is restricted in that it only picks up from
a DIAL.

Examples of using the command:

PickupExtn(SIP/usera)
PickupExtn(SIP/usera&SIP/userb)
PickupExtn(SIP/usera&SIP/userb&SIP/userc)

You could also pickup 

SIP/usera&SIP/userb&SIP/userc 

by simply

PickupExtn(SIP/user)

which is useful but represents a possibly issue at the same time (see
additional information).
